| dc.description.abstract | The efficacy of four antagonistic fungi and two organic amendments in inhibiting the pathogen of coconut stem bleeding disease (T.paradoxa) in soil was studied using pot experiments. Among the nine treatments tested, Gliocladlum virens inoculum @ 10.0g/pot + neem cake (50g/pot) + FYM (500g/pot) showed maximum reduction in T.paradoxa population (50.6%). Trichoderma harzlanum, T. viride and T. hamatum, showed comparatively lesser reductions in T. paradoxa population. (31.3,25.3 and 21.9% respectively). Neem cake + FYM alone (@ 50g & 500g/pot respectively) showed the feast reduction In T. paradoxa population (6.1%). Among the four antagonistic fungi tested, maximum post-treatment populations were observed with T. harzlanum (334.67 and 406.67x104 cfu/g for the doses of 5 and 10g/pot respectively), followed by the populations of G.virens (66.06 and 82.6 x 104cfu/g for the doses of 5 and 10g/pot respectively). Soils amended with neem cake + FYM showed Increased levels of native populations of G. virens (0.0262 x 104 cfu/g) and 7: harzlanum (3.8187 x 104 cfu/g) compared to their populations in the un-amended soils (0.0029 and 0.0921 x 104 cfu/g respectively). | en_US |
