Abstract

Rhizoctonia blight disease caused by Rhizoctonia solani in groundnut crop is one of the most devastating diseases occurring worldwide. The disease affects the morphological and physiological parameters of the crop leading to reduction in pod yield as well as oil yield. The pathogen was isolated locally and identified as Rhizoctonia solani based on molecular characterization. The efficacy of different bioagents in reducing the radial growth of pathogen was tested in vitro and highest mycelia growth inhibition was recorded by Trichoderma asperellum (89.07 %). Among the fungicides tested, 100 % mycelial growth inhibition was observed by use of Carbendazim 50 WP, Tebuconazole 25.9 % EC, Hexaconazole 5 % suspension concentrate (SC) and Tebuconazole 50 % + Trifloxystrobin 25 % water-dispersible granule (WG). Among different organic substances tested in vitro, neem seed cake achieved maximum mycelial growth inhibition of 50.74 % and 54.08 % at 10 % and 20 % concentrations respectively. In the field experiment, treatment with application of neem seed cake to the soil at 500 kg/ha + application of mustard seed cake to the soil at 500 kg/ha + treatment of seeds with Tebuconazole at 1.5 g/kg of seed + treatment of seeds with T. asperellum at 10 g/kg of seed was found to be the best in enhancing plant health, growth promotion and oil yield. The combined treatment of bioagent, fungicide and organic amendment recorded maximum number of branches (14.00), number of leaves (668.33), plant dry weight (64.17 g), 100 pod weight (65.00 g) and oil yield (47.33 %) compared to the control and other treatments along with reduction of the disease (59.61 %). In the physiological parameters study, the same treatment also recorded maximum pigment contents viz. Chlorophyll a (1.843 mg/g), Chlorophyll b (0.555 mg/g), total chlorophyll (2.397 mg/g) and carotenoid content (0.084 mg/g) but with minimum phenol content (1.693 mg/g). Thus, it can be concluded that integration of selective inputs in the combined treatment of Neem seed cake, Mustard seed cake, Tebuconazole and T. asperellum could enhance the plant health, morphological growth and physiological parameters and increased the oil yield in groundnut along with reduction of the disease.
