Abstract: | Abstract Twelve fungicides used for seed treatment were evaluated against Sclerotium rolfsii under unsterilised soil conditions. Tritisan. Brassicol and thiram were found to promote best seedling vigour and root development and also to reduce pre- and post-emergence rot. Captan and Ceresan wet reduced total mortality of the seeds and seedlings. Harvesan and Tillex were effective only at the pre-emergence mortality phase and allowed increased seed emergence. |
