The present study was carried to evaluate the efficacy of various plant extracts and bio-agents against Macrophomina phaseolina. It is a devastating disease in green gram growing area of Rajasthan. In vitro evaluation of bio-agents and seven plants extract (Datura stramonium, Allium sativum, Zingiber officinalis, Lepticium sparticum, Azadirachta indica, NSKE and Allium cepa), revealed that maximum growth inhibition of Macrophomina phaseolina was recorded in Allium sativum followed by Zingiber officinalis at 5%, 10% and 15% concentrations. Among the concentrations 15 % was most effective. Trichoderma harzianum was the most promising antagonist against Macrophomina phaseolina among the different fungal and bacterial antagonists, followed by Trichoderma viride and Pseudomonas fluorescens. The Present study was planned to evaluate the efficacy of bio-agents and plant extracts against Macrophomina phaseolina causing dry root rot of green gram.
