| Abstract | ||
| Field experiments were conducted in Khaled Ibn El-Waleed Village, Badr City, El-Behera Governorate to evaluate the efficacy of four fungicides ( carboxin + thiram, thiophanate-methyl, thiram and tolclofos-methyl + thiram ) and two bioagents (Bacillus subtilis and Trichoderma harzianum) against peanut fungal diseases during the summer season of 2014 and 2015, comparing with untreated control. All the tested compounds were applied at 1, 2 and 3g kg-1 of peanut seeds. The results clearly indicated that all these compounds particularly both tolclofos-methyl + thiram and carboxin + thiram fungicides, reduced pre- and post-emergence damping-off, 14 and 42 days after sowing (DAS), respectively, reduced rotted roots (120 DAS), increased survival (healthy) plants (120 DAS), and finally increased dry pod and seed yields. Generally, all the tested compounds gave better results at their high application rates and the chemical fungicides were the best. | ||
