Abstract
Maize is the most important cereal crop which
has dual purpose for the feed and fodder and also one of the important crop for
industrial purpose crops, among the many biotic challenges soil borne fungus
known as Rhizoctonia solani causes banded sheath blight which mainly
affect the photo synthetic ability of the plants and also lead to premature
death of the plant, chemical as one of the prerequisite of the disease
management but encouraging the natural antagonistic population against the soil
borne pathogen considered as the best eco- friendly management practices and
screening for the host resistance also helps in determine the genotypes to know
the resistance pattern among the chemical management Tebuconazole +
Trifloxystrobin (0.10%) recorded lowest disease severity (25.71 %) over
untreated control (51.43 and 53.09%) followed by Fluxopyraxod + difeconazole
(28.29 and 29.39%) as the best compare to biological control.
