Abstract: Blackgram being an important pulse crop which is a rich source of protein. Tobacco streak virus causing necrosis on blackgram showing typical symptoms were identified in blackgram (Co- 8) fields in Killikulam, Tamil Nadu which is leading to severe yield loss. 10-day old plants were found to be most susceptible in which 93.12 percent transmission was observed. Necrosis in blackgram in citied by Tobacco streak virus produced systemic infection on all age of the plants in which up to 30-day old plants were produced local lesions. The present study was focused on to unravel the effect of age on susceptibility of blackgram plants to necrosis inciting Tobacco streak virus.
