Abstract:

Effect of culture filtrates of most common and dominant fungi viz., Aspergillus niger, Colletotrichum sp. and Fusarium sp. of chilli seed variety GVC 101 and GVC 111 was studied on seed germination, seedling length, fresh weight, dry weight and vigour index.In GVC 101 variety, the seeds treated with culture filtrate of A. niger showed maximum decrease in seed germination (43.35%) followed by Colletotrichumsp. (20.23%) and Fusarium sp. (9.83%). Average seedling length was also decreased maximum in seeds treated with culture filtrate of A. niger (43.70%) followed by Colletotrichum sp. (40.22%) and Fusarium sp. (23.91%). Seeds treated with culture filtrate of A. niger showed maximum reduction of vigour index by 68.09 per cent followed by Colletotrichum sp. (52.31%) and Fusarium sp. (31.34%). In GVC 111 variety, the seeds treated with culture filtrate of A. niger showed maximum decrease in seed germination (35.12%) followed by Colletotrichum sp. (17.89%) and Fusarium sp. (15.12%). Average seedling length was also decreased maximum in seeds treated with culture filtrate of A. niger (61.14%) followed by Colletotrichum sp. (36.64%) and Fusarium sp. (25.54%). Seeds treated with culture filtrate of A. niger showed maximum reduction of vigour index by 74.73 per cent followed by Colletotrichumsp. (47.91%) and Fusarium sp. (36.73%).
