Abstract
Nine Trichoderma formulations i.e. TF.WP1, TF.WP2, TF.WP3, TF.LQ4, TF.LQ5, TF.LQ6, TF.LQ7, TF.Paste8, TF.Paste9 were tested for their growth promotion effect (in vitro & in vivo) and against chickpea mortality under glasshouse conditions. These formulations were applied as seed treatment @ 5 g or ml/kg seed. In-vitro maximum seedling vigour index (4836) was recorded in TF.WP2 followed by TF.WP1 (4483) and TF.WP3 (4330) while under glasshouse conditions, maximum plant vigour index (6008) was observed in TF.WP2 followed by TF.WP3 (5641) and TF.WP1 (5460). Significant lowest seed and plant mortality (6.67 & 10.74%) was observed TF.WP2 followed by TF.WP1 (10.00 & 14.54%) and TF.WP3 (13.33 & 15.28%).The study showed that among various Trichoderma formulations TF.WP2, TF.WP1 and TF.WP3 wettable based formulations were found significantly better in improving plant vigour and in reducing chickpea mortality compare to liquid based Trichoderma formulations.
