Abstract:

Observations were made on the diseases of
beans and groundnuts in an experiment utilizing
these crops planted as monocropped beans, twothirds beans/one-third groundnuts, one-third
beans/two-thirds groundnuts, and monocropped
groundnuts with three different populations: 11,
22, and 44 plants/m2.
The incidence of groundnut rosette was con- siderably lower in the intercrops than in pure
stand, especially at higher plant densities. As ex- pected, the incidence of rosette decreased with
increasing plant densities irrespective of whether
groundnuts were planted as a monocrop or an intercrop
