Abstract
Seed treatment with bio-wilt X (Trichoderma harzianum) reduced the severity to 2.4 on 0–5 scale followed by bio-derma (T. viride, 2.7) and Abtec Pseudo (Pseudomonas fluorescens, 2.8). The functional nodule count decreased while an increase in non functional nodules was recorded due to inoculation with Macrophomina phaseolina. The growth and yield of infected plants was 37–59% and 38–42% lower than uninoculated plants. Seed application with bio-fungicides @ 4g/ml kg seeds reduced the severity of damage and also increased the growth and yield of infested plants. The greatest increase in growth parameters (30–36%) and yield (28–40%) was recorded with bio-wilt X (T. harzianum). T. viride (bio-derma) was next in increasing chick pea dry weight and yield by 18–29% and 25–33%, respectively followed by Abtec Pseudo that caused 18–26% and 2527% increase over pathogen inoculated plants. Abtec Bacillus did not significantly improve the growth parameters, but enhanced the yield by 19%. Soil population of M. phaseolina was significantly reduced in presence of bio-control agents.

8 of 9 groups shown: named compounds and organisms first, then groups whose results differ (checked claim by claim), then those with positive and negative results, then the smaller groups.
Claims are grouped by organism, treatment and what was measured or targeted. A paper counts as positive when any of its claims in the group is positive.
