Efficacy of Bioagents Against Seed Borne Fungi of Black Gram.

ABSTRACT

The effect of different antagonists’ viz. Trichoderma viride, Pseudomonas fluorescens and Bacillus subtilis were evaluated against different seed borne fungi of black gram by dual culture technique. Among three bioagents, Bacillus subtilis exhibited maximum mycelial growth inhibition of Phoma medicaginis (73.70%), Fusarium solani (57.60%), Curvularia lunata (44.53%) followed by Pseudomonas fluorescens with Macrophomina phaseolina (62.41%) and Fusarium oxysporum (59.97%) respectively.
