In the present investigation effect of different inoculum densities of S. rolfsii on the development of stem rot of groundnut was assessed using soil infestation method in pot culture under green house and highest germination (45.83), root length (12.37 cm) and shoot length (15.16 cm) was observed at 1 per cent inoculum level. Germination percentage, root length and shoot length of groundnut was gradually decreased with increase of inoculum levels from 1 to 5 per cent. Lowest germination (16.66%), root length (7.50 cm), shoot length (8.33 cm) was observed in 5 per cent inoculum levels. Since the germination of groundnut seeds was reduced to more than 50 per cent at one per cent inoculums level, it was followed throughout the investigations.
