 ABSTRACT

The present investigation was carried out under in vitro conditions in the Department of Plant Pathology, CCS, Haryana Agricultural University Hisar to test the efficacy of urea against Colletotrichum gloeosporioides. The experiment was carried out through poison food technique under in vitro conditions. Urea was found effective in inhibition of mycelial growth up to 62.3 per cent at 2 per cent concentration, while at 5 per cent concentration it inhibited mycelial growth up to 72.8 per cent.

Key words: Urea, Mycelial growth, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides.
