Abstract:

An experiment was conducted at experimental field of Plant Pathology, Sam Higginbottom University of Agricultural, Technology and Sciences, Allahabad, during the kharif season 2017 to evaluate the effect of botanicals and bio-agents against Anthracnose of Cowpea caused by Colletotrichum lindemuthianum. Eight treatments including control replicated thrice in Randomized block design. In field experiments, the highest reduction of disease intensity was achieved by Trichoderma viride (23.703) and Pseudomonas fluorescens (25.550) @ 2% at 30, 60, 90 DAS. Under invitro condition Eucalyptus oil @ 5% was found most effective inhibiting mycelial growth (100%) followed by Trichoderma viride (68.82%). All the treatments significantly reduced the Anthracnose disease under field conditions.


Keywords: Anthracnose, Colletotrichum lindemuthianum, bio-agents, botanicals.
