- Abstract
The damping-off incidence caused by Pythium aphanidermatum in chilli was 20.0 and 58.0% post-emergence at 7 and 20 days after sowing, respectively in clay soil. Among 4 different soils, clay soil favoured the disease most and recorded the maximum fungal population of 12.46×103 cfu/g of soil at 20 days after sowing. The incidence of disease was comparatively low in sandy soil.
