Abstract:
The effect of different antagonist’ viz.
Trichoderma viride and
Pseudomonas fluorescens were evaluated against different Alternaria blight of chickpea by dual culture technique. Among Bio-agents
Trichoderma viride (49.08%) followed by
Pseudomonas fluorescens (41.84%)
over control were found effective in controlling the Alternaria blight. Among the fungicides, Chlorothalonil was highly effective in inhibiting the growth of
Alternaria alternata as it produced 55.27% growth inhibition at 5% concentrations, respectively. Mancozeb and Azoxystrobin were found effective as growth inhibitions about 51.54%, 42.23% respectively. Followed by Thiabendazole at 5 @ (37.33%). In food poison technique method.
