Abstract/ Executive Summary:

A field experiment was conducted in the field of Bangladesh Institute of Nuclear Agriculture sub-station, Ishurdi to determine the effect of different fungicides iin controlling root rot of chickpea. Germination of chickpea were increased by treating seeds with Secure 600 WG (48.62%) followed by Provax 200 WP (44.38%) over control. Pre-emergence death of chickpea decreased up to 30.42% by treating seeds with Secure 600 WG over control. The lowest disease incidence (8.68%) was found in secure. Secure 600 WG treating seeds decreased disease incidence 70.05% followed by Bavistin 68.57% over control. Seed treated with Secure 600 WG and Bavistin increased plant stand by 28.65% and 27.97%, respectively over control. Maximum shoot length (11.78%) was found when seeds were treated with Secure 600 WG, while maximum root length (21.80%) was recorded when seeds were treated with Provax 200 WP over control. Seeds treated with Secure 600 WG, Provax 200 WP and Bavistin increased vigour index up to 66.94%, 63.28% and 56.68% over control. Seed treated with Secure 600 WG resulted highest fresh weight of biomass (3031) which was 82.32% higher over control. Seeds treated with Secure 600 WG also resulted highest grain yield (192.1 g/m²) which was 81.50% higher over control.

Program Area: Pest Management

Commodity: Chickpea

Objectives:

To evaluate fungicides in controlling root rot of chickpea.

Methodology:

Six fungicide were test to control root rot of chickpea following RCBD with three replications. The different fungicides were applied in the field experiment and data were taken following the method of Abdul Baki and Anderson, 1973.
