Five Fungicides- Propiconazole, Hexaconazole, Bavistin, Topsin M and Vitavax at 100, 250 and 500 ppm concentrations were evaluated for their efficacy against S. rolfsii in vitro. Propiconazole, Hexaconazole and Vitavax completely inhibited the growth of S. rolfsii in vitro while Bavistin and Topsin M showed 79.52 and 71.78% growth inhibition respectively at 500 ppm. The integration of soil application of maize grain based culture of T. harzianum (10 g per pot) with Vitavax seed treatment @ 2 g/kg seed proved best combination and gave maximum disease control over check (79.95%). Integration of seed treatment with T. harzianum and Vitavax showed 59.90% disease control which was higher than Vitavax 0.2% seed treatment alone but did not differ significantly with each other. Seed treatment with fungicides significantly reduced the seedling mortality of chickpea when compared with control. Seed treatment with Vitavax @ 2 g/kg of seed proved that best and showed 73.32% disease control followed by Propiconazole @ 2 g/kg.
