Abstract

Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) is one of the vegetable crops grown in all parts of world for its fleshy fruits but it is affected by wilting. The Wilt of Tomato one of the most serious diseases of tomato caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici. Therefore, present study was undertaken during, kharif, 2021-22 in the Department of Plant Pathology, VNMKV, Parbhani by using poisoned food technique. The experiment was laid with three replications and Eight treatments using Completely Randomized Design (CRD). Treatments were evaluated viz., Propiconazole 25% EC, Pyraclostrobin 20% WG, Hexaconazole 5% EC, Thiophanate methyl 70% WP, Difenoconazole 25% EC, Azoxystrobin 25% EC, Tebuconazole 25.9% EC and Control. Among seven systemic fungicides tested, Carbendazim and Hexaconazole at all two different concentrations (@ 500 and 1000 ppm) showed complete (100%) mycelial inhibition, followed by Tebuconazole (95.06%), Difenoconazole (92.65%), Propiconazole (89.94%) and Thiophanate methyl (62.28%), respectively. The Pyraclostrobin was found less effective with 44.93% mycelial inhibition over Untreated Control in vitro condition against Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici

Conclusion

Seven different systemic fungicides tested in vitro against Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici, among this Carbendazim and Hexaconazole at two different concentrations (@ 500 and 1000 ppm) showed complete (100%) mycelial inhibition, followed by Tebuconazole (95.06%), Difenoconazole (92.65%), Propiconazole (89.94%) and Thiophanate methyl (62.28%), respectively
