Red rot of sugarcane caused by Colletotrichum falcatum is a major constraint in sugarcane production causing substantial loss in yield and quality. Use of biocontrol agents is an effective, eco-friendly and non-hazardous possibility for red rot management. In the present investigation potential bio-control agents were screened against C. falcatum on sugarcane. Among the 15 species/ isolates of bacterial and fungal antagonistic organisms screened against C. falcatum in dual culture, Pseudomonas fluorescens isolate-1 and Trichoderma viride isolate-3 showed maximum inhibitory effect on C. falcatum. These two isolates identified as more potential biocontrol agents in the present investigation can be exploited to control red rot of sugarcane.Keywords

Experiments were carried out to develop an effective biocontrol method against sugarcane red rot disease under field conditions in sugarcane var. CoC-671. Integrated approach as sett treatment + foliar spray + soil application of the antagonistic organism Pseudomonas fluorescens recorded the lowest disease incidence (10.37 per cent), higher germination (77.67 per cent), more number of tillers (2.67/ha), economic shoots (1.95/ha) and increased yield (47.80tonnes/ha), highest brix value (21.27 per cent), sucrose (18.67 per cent) and commercial cane sugar (10.86 per cent) in the sugar cane var. CoC-671.Keywords
