Tomato is one of the most preferable and extensively grown vegetables in India as well as in Chhattisgarh. The tomato plant is infected with many diseases in its life but they do not occur simultaneously and their development varies with place and season. Therefore a study was undertaken in
Different concentration of four plant extracts viz. neem, garlic, Cassia tora, and ginger extract (10%, 20%, 30% and 40%) were used for testing the efficacy of plant extract against seed mycoflora of okra. In case of treatment with neem extract germination was recorded highest 81.40 % followed by 75.70 %, 62.80% and lowest was 49.28 % in the concentration of 40%, 30%, 20% and 10 % respectively, The seed treated with different plant extract, neem extract was recorded with minimum (29.61 %) frequency of mycoflora followed by Cassia tora extract (32.08 %), ginger extract (32.28 %) and maximum frequency was found in garlic extract (33.53 %). On an average among all the plant extract frequency of mycoflora was highest of Fusarium sp. (15.69 %) followed by Aspergillus flavus (13.77 %), Alternaria sp. (2.57 %), Sterile mycelium (0.89 %), Chaetomium sp. (0.76 %), Curvularia sp. (0.53 %), Nigrospora sp. (0.28 %) and lowest was Rhizopus sp. (0.08%). Memnoniella sp. was not found in all plant extracts treated seed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
