Abstract

Chickpea wilt caused by F. oxysporum f. sp. ciceri. In-vitro evaluation of four plant leaf extracts revealed that, among these extracts per cent inhibition over control was found maximum (71.93) in Azadirachta indica followed by Lantana camara (59.32) and it was found minimum in Argemone mexicana (42.80). Parthenium hysterophorus was found least (47.11) effective to inhibit the mycelial growth of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceri under in-vitro conditions.
