Dry root rot caused by Rhizoctonia bataticola (Taub.) Butler is emerging as a serious biotic constraint for chickpea production. It is the most important and widespread soil borne disease of chickpea. Among the several constraints affecting the productivity of chickpea, 10-35 per cent loss in yields are due to dry root rot diseases. Among them, dry root rot caused by Rhizoctonia bataticola is becoming severe in most of the chickpea growing regions of Karnataka So to find out the best management strategies for the disease through bio-control agents and fungicides, investigation was carried during rabi 2015-16 and rabi 2016-17 in the study area.
