Abstract

Sorghum grown under adverse conditions may be subject to root rot in cited by species of Fusarium especially (F. moniliforme) which may occur anytime from seed germination to plant maturity (Edmunds and Zummo, 1975). Stalk rots may follow root rot or certain combinations of environmental and plant development sequences that predispose plants to attack by stalk - rotting pathogens. These conditions appear to be complex and involve several factors that must either coincide or occur in a precise succession before stalk rot can occur
