ABSTRACT
Root rot caused by Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc. has been observed to cause rapid mortality in chilli plantations. Among nine fungicides and two bio control agents tested in vitro against S. rolfsii the result revealed that the fungicides Carbendazim(0.1%)+Mancozeb (0.2%), Thiram (0.2%) and Mancozeb (0.2%) recorded 100% growth inhibition and were significantly superior over rest of the fungicidal treatments, it was followed by T. viride (65.55), T. harzianum (64.44%), Captan (55.55), Hexaconazole (38.88%), Bordeaux mixture (33.33%), Benomyl (25.55%), Copper Oxychloride (11.11%) and Carbendazim (3.33%).
Key words: Chilli, Fungicides, Mancozeb, Carbendazim, Hexaconazole
