Integrated disease management of Rhizoctonia bataticola causing dry root rot of chickpê

Abstract

Integrated disease management of Rhizoctonia bataticola causing dry root of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) crop were studied during 2018-19 at VNMKV, Parbhani. In present studies, Carboxin 37.5% + Thiram 37.5% WP seed treatment @ 3g / kg seed + T. asperellum @ 10g / kg seed + Neem seed cake @ 50g / kg soil, followed by Carbendazim 50WP seed treatment @ 1g / kg seed + T. asperellum @ 10g / kg seed + FYM @ 50g / kg soil and Carbendazim 50% WP (ST) @ 1 g + T. asperellum (ST) @ 10 g + NSC (SA) @ 50 g were found most efficient with significantly highest reduction in pre-emergence seed rot, post-emergence seedling mortality and total mortality, over untreated control
