Abstract | ||
Four biocontrol agents. namely Rizo-N (Bacillus subtilis). Plant Guar (Trichoderma harzianum and T. konigif) and Pseudomonas nuorescents. were teste] for their antagonistic action against four fungi causing pea damping-off. i.e Rhizoctonia solani, Sclerotium rolfsii, Fusarium so/ani and Macrophomina phaseolina Through In vitro studies, Promot caused the highest percentage decrease in linea mycelial growth of all the tested pathogenic fungi, followed by Rizo-N and Plant Guar whereas low effect was recorded for P. nuorescents. Rizo-N (B. subtilis) gave best results in controlling pea damping-off disease In vivo. I | ||
