EVALUATION OF BIO-CONTROL AGENTS AND FUNGICIDES AGAINST F. solani CAUSING CHILLI WILT

摘要

Chilli (Capsicum annum L.) is one of the most important vegetable crops grown in India for the value of its fruits in making spices and condiments. During the survey, chilli crop was found moderately to severely affected by wilt in Gondal taluka, of Rajkot district. Looking to the seriousness of the disease, present investigation was undertaken to find out suitable chemical and bio control measures for minimizing the crop looses. Effect of bio-control agents and fungicides on chilli wilt caused by Fsolaniwas evaluated under pot condition. Highest reduction in disease incidence and dead plants were recorded in the treatment of T. viride. It was at par with carbendazim.
