Abstract

Investigations concerning the diseases of peanut (A. hypogea L.var. Spanish) caused by Rhizoctonia solani and Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc, were carried out to determine: 1.The relative pathological importance of these two fungi; 2.The interrelationship of inoculum potential and other soil microflora with disease development;and 3. The influence of soil fumigants on disease development and on the total population of soil microflora.
