A soil pathogen which causes damping off and rotting in the seedlings in the nursery is caused by Rhizoctonia solani where its sexual stage is recognized as Thanatephorus cucumeris (Frank). It is a soil borne pathogen which leads to a huge loss in the field. the pathogen produces no such spores like conidia or conidiophores. It infects a wide range of hosts from vegetables to cereals in the field. appearance of the symptoms in the form of lesions on the infected parts of the plant were observed. Presence of mycelium was detected with septations and the branching were at 90° that is., at right angles branching were observed. Till date, there are thirteen AGs recognized from the Rhizoctonia solani. The groups were designed based on the hyphal interactions among the pathogen.
