The investigation was undertaken to test the efficacy of pytoalexin against Fusarium udum, Amongst the eleven concentrations of cajanol tested against F. udum concentrations causing wilt of pigeonpea i.e. 325, 350 and 375 g/l were found most effective resulting in cent per cent growth inhibition of F. udum. The concentrations of cajanol viz., 350 g/l and 375 g/l were found to be most effective against conidial germination of F. udum. Besides the above, a commercial cajanol formulation was also tested against F. udum and the concentrations of 325 µg/l, 350 µg/l and 375 µg/l were againfound to be most effective in inhibiting the conidial growth germination.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
