Abstract

Root rot disease caused by Rhizoctonia solani J.G. Kuhn and Fusarium solani (Mart.) Sacc. is a major problem restricting profitable farming of green bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). Under field conditions, some chemical inducers compared with chemical fungicides were evaluated for controlling bean root rot disease. Significant effect was observed for all applied treatments against disease incidence compared with control. Applied treatments of seed dressing plus foliar spray showed the highest reduction of root rot incidence followed by seed dressing then foliar spray. Salicylic acid as seed followed by foliar spray showed the highest suppressive effect against disease incidence followed by glutathione treatments. Furthermore, application of calcium silicate revealed higher effect against disease incidence compared with potassium and sodium silicate at both pre-, and post-emergence plant growth stages. Fungicidal treatments showed affect disease incidence in a lower extent compared with Plant Resistance Inducers (PRI). Treatment of Rizolex T50 followed by Topsin M70 was more effectively in controlling root rot than each fungicide alone. Such applied treatments could be useful for controlling root rot disease under field conditions.
