Abstract
The present investigation was carried out on the “Studies of Seedborne Mycoflora of Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.)”, with a view to assess seed borne mycoflora associated with the seeds of groundnut, their effect on seed germination and seedling vigour index, effects of fungicides and bioagents on seed borne mycoflora, seed germination and seedling vigour index. The externally seed borne pathogens of groundnut were detected by standard blotter test. Five seed borne fungi were found associated with seeds of groundnut externally, which were Fusarium oxysporum, Macrophomina phaseolina, Penicillium spp., Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus niger. The internally seed borne fungi were detected by agar plate method and two fungi identified were Fusarium oxysporum and Macrophomina phaseolina. Among them Aspergillus flavus have highest incidence of 51.33 per cent. All the isolated pathogens were found pathogenic to groundnut resulting into reduction in seed germination and seedling vigour index. The seed borne mycoflora viz., Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger, Fusarium oxysporum, Macrophomina phaseolina and Penicillium spp were found more dominant and damaging. The lowest seed germination and seedling vigour index were noticed in the seeds inoculated with Aspergillus flavus which were 60.92 per cent and 908.75, respectively, as against 80.0 per cent and 1190.00 in control.
