Efficacy of Substrate Based Trichoderma Harzianum Bio-fungicides in Controlling Seedling Disease (fusarium Oxysporum) of Brinjal in Seed Bed

Abstract

Efficacy of individual and mixed substrates i.e. rice bran, wheat bran, grass pea bran and their combination with mustard oilcake (MOC), based Trichoderma harzianum bio-fungicides were tested against seedling disease (Fusarium oxysporum) of brinjal in plastic tray and seed bed during 2009 to 2014 in the net house of Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI). The results of plastic tray and seed bed experiments revealed that four combinations of substrate based T. harzianum bio-fungicides such as (1) rice bran + wheat bran, (2) rice bran + wheat bran + mustard oil cake (MOC), (3) rice bran + grasspea bran, and (4) rice bran + grasspea bran +MOC were suitable for controlling the soil borne seedling disease (F. oxysporum) of brinjal in tray soil as well as seed bed soil conditions.

Bioefficacy of various strains of Trichoderma and Pseudomonas spp. against damping-off of cauliflower

“…Cauliflower (Brassica oleracea var. botrytis L.) is one of the major vegetable belonging to family Brassicaceae (Faruk 2016). Cauliflower and other Brassica plants such as broccoli and cabbage are cold season crops and they grow poorly in hot weather (Krish et al 2007).…”
