Compatibility of Trichoderma viride with different fungicide and organic cake

In course of investigation on compatibility of the effective fungicides and organic cake with Trichoderma viride by food poisoned technique carbendazim showed almost complete suppression (94.2%) of Trichoderma viride followed by carbendazim+ mancozeb (93.8%) and thiophanate methyl (91.5%) at 150 ppm concentration followed by 100 ppm and 50 ppm. Among the cakes, the highest inhibition (19.2%) was recorded in neem cake followed by mustard cake (13.9%) and caster cake (7.6%). Thus all the cakes showed compatibility with Trichoderma viride. Present finding suggest that compatible fungicides and organic cakes can be used with Trichoderma viride in an integrated disease management practices for the control of soil born pathogen.
