Biological Control of Seed borne Pathogen of Some Spices Baig Mumtaz Dr.Rafiq Zakaria College For Women,Aurangabad. Maharashtra 431001.India mumtazfarhan.mirza@gmail.com Abstract Spices are frequently infected by fungal pathogen mostly which can include seed borne fungi. In majority of cases the fungal pathogen is present already within or on the surface of seed and which are responsible of the deterioration of seeds in storage which makes the seeds unfit for consumption , meanwhile also causes seed rot and seedling plant diseases .Seeds are the most critical input in crop production 90% of all the world .In the past few years chemical are widely used for seed treatment .However rising their negative impact on the environment and human health. The aim of the present investigation is to determine the prevalence of seed borne fungi of spices seeds and control with plant extract .The experiment was carried out in pathology laboratory for efficacy of extract as seed treater. Four spices cardamom, ,Clove, Pepper and Fennel has selected for the study. The major predominant identified fungi were Alternaria solani, Aspergillus flavus, A.niger, Fusarium sp. In this study evaluated Marigold leaves for observing the action of this plant extract on seed borne fungi of spices. The study revealed that the most effective methanolic extract against Alternaria solani has been observed.
Keywords:
Aspergillus flavus, deterioration, Methanolic etc.
