| Abstract | ||
Germination of sclerotia of Sclerotiumrolfsii were determined in soil amended with different levels (0.1%, 25%, 5.0%& 10.0%) of sugarcane bagasse ash. Addition of ash reduced the percentage germination and lengthened the days of commencement of formation of new sclerotia.Being alkaline in nature ash residue appreciably raised soil pH from 6.4 to 9.2. |
