Abstract

Oedocephalum made its appearance as irregular, light silver gray patches on the substrate. Out of the four inoculum levels tried, maximum (41.0%) yield loss was recorded with 2.0 g inoculum load. Among fungicides, bavistin and sporgon proved to be the most toxic at all the concentrations tried and gave 100% mycelial inhibition. Neemol was the most effective plant product at both the concentrations tried as it gave 90 and 93% reduction in the mycelial growth of Oedocephalum at 2% concentration when it was added pre and post sterilization of the substrate, respectively. Two sprays of sporgon were most effective against Oedocephalum which gave 750 g yield/5 kg wet substrate.
