Abstract

Efforts were made to control the damping off of tomato caused by Pythium aphanidermatum by using Trichoderma viride alone or in combination with soil solarization. T. viride along with soil solarization effectively reduced the pre and post-emergence damping off by 75.23 per cent and 88.34 per cent, respectively over control with concomitant Increase in seedling vigour index and biomass of tomato.
