Abstract

Eight different fungicides viz Mancozeb (0.2%), Antracol (0.2%), Indofil Z-78 (0.2%), Acrobat (0.2%), Matco (0.2%), Roko (0.2%), Taquat (0.2%) and Blaster (0.2%) were evaluated against Fusarium udum under laboratory and glass house conditions. It was observed that Mancozeb (0.2%) was the best fungicide which completely inhibited the growth of fungus, followed by Antracol (0.2%), Indofil Z-78 (0.2%), Acrobat (0.2%), Matco (0.2%), Roko (0.2%), Taquat (0.2%) and Blaster (0.2%) which are also able to checked the fungal growth to some extent under laboratory. Low wilt incidence with 66.7% was found from seed treated with mancozeb followed by Antracol, Blaster , Acrobat, Taquat, Indofil Z-78, Roko and Matco in pot experiment.
