Abstract:

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum Mill.) is one of the most remunerative and widely grown vegetables in the world. The area under tomato cultivation in Manipur accounts for about 0.15 million hectares with an average production of 2.10 million tonnes and productivity of 12.02 tonnes ha-1 during 2016-17. Present research was carried out to study the effect of different culture media and pH on mycelia growth of Curvularia spicifera. Among seven culture media that were tested, the fungus grew best on Coon’s media, Oat Meal Agar and Richards agar. The most suitable pH for growth of fungus was 10 and 8.0.
