Different substrates of Trichoderma affecting its efficacy and compatibility with fungicides
Abstract
Thiram (003%) showed the maximum suppression of Trichodenna grown on wheat straw (81.23%) and minimum of Trichodenna grown on sorghum grains (74.81%). Carbendazim (0.1%) exhibited the complete inhibition of Trichodenna fungus grown on each substrate. Inhibition of Trichodenna due to Ridomil-MZ (0.2%) was less compared to other fungicides and the suppression due to this fungicide was maximum only as 28.89% in Trichodenna grown on maize grain and minimum in Trichodenna multiplied on yeast molasses extract (9.53%). The maximum per cent inhibition of Rhizoctonia bataticola was found by Trichodenna grown on sorghum grain (41.48%). Sclerotium rol/sii was inhibited maximum by Trichoderma grown on sorghulll grain (61. 22%). Trichoderma grown on maize grain inhibited Fusarium udum at maximum (41.97%) and lowest per cent inhibition of Fusarium udum was found by sterilized water formulated Trichodenna (32.33%).
