IN VITRO STUDY ON RHIZOCTONIA SOLANI CAUSING DAMPING OFF AND ROOT ROT DISEASES IN DIFFERENT CROP SEEDLINGS
A total of eighteen crop types were tested for their reaction against Rhizoctonia solani under artificially inoculated conditions. Pathogenicity test revealed that various crop seedlings showed different percentages of damping off and root rot diseases. Results indicated highest incidence of damping off disease in fenugreek and lowest in chilly seedlings. The incidence of root disease was maximum in lentil and minimum in green gram, while fenugreek showed nil as it got almost completely damaged by damping off disease.
