The results of the study revealed thaturea was most effective in inhibiting the fungal growth at all the tested concentration. It was also found that soluble NPK and Potassium nitrate promoted the fungal growth at all the concentration. Among biorationals, bromonitropropanol gave the highest mycelial inhibition (), while sodium and potassium bicarbonates at lower concentration promoted the fungal growth, but inhibited the growth at higher concentration. These results provide the insight about the possible effects that foliar spray of fertilizers and biorationals can have on the fungal pathogen and their potential use in the disease management strategy under field conditions. |
