Abstract

Under field condition, spray of Streptocycline (0.05%) in combination with COC (0.2%) was significantly effective than all other treatments in recording the lowest per cent disease incidence (PDI) of 14.07. Among the bio-agents, Pseudomonas fluorescens (0.5%) was found significantly effective in recording the lowest PDI of 24.44, whereas in untreated control plot, the highest disease intensity of 70.37 PDI was recorded.
