Abstract

Antagonistic action of Trichoderma sp., Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus flavus;, Bacillus sp. were checked in vitro against Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceri by dual culture technique. Trichoderma sp. was found to be most effective against Fusarium oxysporum which recorded 71.36% growth inhibition with 25.77 mm radial mycelial growth followed by Aspergillus niger (57.04%), Aspergillus flavus (54.82%), Bacillus sp. (53.83%).
