Jahangir Abdullah Koka*, Abdul Hamid Wani and Mohd. Yaqub Bhat
ABSTRACT
Brinjal fruits was infected by different pathogens especially fungal pathogens under storage conditions as well as in field conditions. It was observed that brinjal fruit was attacked by Penicillium chrysogenum, causing Penicillium rot of brinjal. In the present study antimycotic activity of some fungicides was undertaken against Penicillium rot of brinjal. Different concentrations of fungicides brought about significant reduction in the mycelial growth and spore germination of Penicillium chrysogenum under in vitro conditions. Hexaconozole proved highly effective in inhibiting the mycelial growth and spore germination of P. chrysogenum followed by carbendazim and copper oxychloride respectively. However, other concentrations also proved effective but to lesser extent.
