| Abstract | ||
| Fungicidal effect of Benlate (benomyl) and Monceren (pencycuran). efficacy of two biotic agents: Trichoderma viridi and Bacillus subtilis, as well as Saponin: a steroidal glycoside extracted from alfalfa seeds, were evaluated for the control of pre- and post-emergence damping-off on three mungbean entries showing different levels of infection to the causal agents: Rhizocionia so/ani Kuhn, Fusarium so/ani (Mart.) Sacc., and Macrophomina phaseo/ina (Maubl): under greenhouse and field conditions at three locations: Sakha, Itay EI-Baroud and Shandaweel. Generally, seed treatment with the aforementioned treatments significantly reduced the percentage of infection of pre-and post-emergence damping-off on the three mung bean entries, consequently increased the crop yield. Integration of both seed dressing, with either benomyl or pencycuran at a rate of 3 g/kg seed using the less infected entry VC 2719 was the most effective method for controlling mungbean damping-off.Although bioagents, T. viridi, B. subtilis and Saponin were less effective than benomyl and pencycuran, they were considered more safety than those fungicides. | ||
