摘要：The protection studies were extended to plants grown in the open field in order to evaluate the efficacyof phyto-protein mediated protection under field conditions. The fruit yielding crop was sown in separate beds thatwere arranged in randomized block design. Upon germination the seedlings were thinned to 50 plants/bed. Borderweeds along the side of the bed were routinely removed to facilitate the free flow of virus vectors. The bio-enhancermilk protein at a strength of 2.0% was added to each of the phyto-protein i.e. B. diffusa and C. aculeatum. The cropplants were sprayed with (BD/CA) phytoproteins or BD/CA phytoproteins with MP. A total of 8 sprays wereadministrated at weekly intervals. Alternate treatments with either BD/CA alone or BD/CA in combination with MPwere administrated. The plants were sprayed for a duration of 2 months, especially when the plants were in thesusceptible phase. Addition of milk protein to the phytoproteins induced a greater degree of resistance than when eitherof the phytoproteins was used alone. The treated plants developed mild symptoms and showed marked decrease indisease incidence. The number of plants showing systemic infection was also reduced. The treated plants were taller,with better flowering and fruiting and the crop yield was also increased upon addition of milk protein to phytoproteins.
