Abstract
Studies was evaluated on “effect of ridges height on the growth and root rot control of chili cultivars in Mansehra†during 2016. The Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) was used with two factors factorial arrangement having three replications. Four chili cultivars i.e. Sundari, Ghotki, Skyline-2 and P-6 were tested for their tolerance against root rot disease. Different ridges height i.e. flatbed, 20, 30 and 40 cm were used. Except P-6 all other cultivars were found susceptible to root rot disease. Maximum plant height (92.86 cm), numbers of branches (14.87), number of fruit plant-1 (204.33), root length (29.53 cm), minimum disease incidence (12.33%), and plant mortality (10.00%), fruit weight plant-1 (785.87 g) and yield per hectare (23.57ton ha-1) was recorded in P-6 cultivar with effective ridges height 40 cm. these result recommended that P-6 cultivar more tolerant against root rot disease in Mansehra on ridges height 40 cm.
