Ph.D. Thesis Title of Thesis : Studies on integrated management practices against storage rot of ginger (Zingiber officinale Rosc.) Name of the student : Sushma Sharma Major Advisor : Dr. N. P. Dohroo Major Field : Plant Pathology Minor Field : Entomology Degree awarded : Doctor of Philosophy Plant Pathology Year of Award of Degree : ) Best Ph.D. thesis award by Society for the Advancement of Human and Nature (SADHNA) 2) Fifteen different varieties of ginger were evaluated for their relative resistance to storage rot in in vitro and storage conditions 3) Morphological and molecular characterization of storage rot pathogen 4) Spectrum of fungi isolated from ginger sampled taken from different markets 5) Biochemical studies in relation to disease development. 6) Molecular characterization of storage rot pathogen for understanding evolutionary relationship among fusarium isolates

3 7) Genetic variability and Phylogenetic analysis among fusarium isolates collected from different location of Himachal Pradesh by using different ISSR markers 8) Integrated disease management practices by using fungicides, botanicals, biocontrol, neem based formulation, cow urine for the management of storage rot pathogen.
