ABSTRACT
Soil application of maize grain based culture of T. harzianum at 5, 10, 15 and 20 g per pot showed significant reduction in mortality of chickpea seedlings caused by Sclerotium rolfsii. Maximum control of collar rot (53.33%) was recorded in treatment where T. harzianum was applied @ 20 g per pot. Seed treatment with fungicides significantly reduced the mortality of chickpea seedlings when compared with control. The Seeds treated with Carboxin (Vitavax) @ 2 g/kg proved most effective and showed 66.70 % disease control followed by Propiconazole @ 2 g/kg seed. Key words: Sclerotium rolfsii, Trichoderma harzianum, Fungicides
