Abstract
A field study during 3 consecutive rainy seasons (kharif) (1991-93) wa s carried out at Anand to see the impact of late leaf-spot disease cau sed by Phaeoisariopsis personata (Berk & M.A. Curtis) Van Ant on 'TMV 2' and 'GAUG 2' groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.). Under the luxuriant c rop growth, micro-and macro-environmental conditions aggravated the la te leaf-spot disease. 'TMV 2' succumbed more to disease than 'GAUG 2'. Further, the crop canopy and defoliation of leaves had independent ro le in determining the impact of disease intensity and degree of resist ance in groundnut varieties.
