To evaluate in-vivo efficacy of fungicides, bio-agents and phyto-extracts against sudden death syndrome (wilt) of soybean caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. virguliforme

Abstract

Sudden death syndrome (wilt) of soybean caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. virguliforme. In-vivo evaluation of effective fungicides, bioagents and phyto- extracts (in field condition), per cent seed germination with effective treatments was ranged from 95.72 to 100 per cent. The effective treatment with Azoxystrobin and Propiconazole shown 100 per cent seed germination and Garlic clove extract was found less effective which shown comparatively less germination i.e. 95.72 per cent, where as in case of control it was least i.e. 93.76 per cent. The wilt disease incidence in field condition was ranged from 8.60 to 43.30 per cent. The least wilt disease incidence was recorded with Azoxystrobin i.e. 8.60 per cent and Garlic clove extract was found highest percentage of wilt disease incidence i.e. 43.30 per cent.
