Present study was undertaken to study efficacy of seed bio-priming on seed germination and the prevalence of seed borne diseases. The results revealed that seed germination significantly increased, while Alternaria leaf spot, Anthracnose and Macrophomina leaf blight were significantly decreased due to seed bio-priming with T. harzianum, T. viride and P. aeruginosa @ 10 gm talc based formulation/kg seeds.
