   Subscribe/Renew Journal


In vitro, Fusarium solani, causing wilt of shisham, is found to survive best in sterile loam soils containing up to 20 percent moisture. The pathogen however declines rapidly with the increase in moisture percentage in the soils above this level. This fact together with the circumstantial evidence that shisham thrives well in irrigated plantations free from ischolar_main diseases suggest that the wilt diesase of shisham may be controlled in diseased areas by irrigation.

The pathogen however declines rapidly with the increase in moisture percentage in the soils above this level. This fact together with the circumstantial evidence that shisham thrives well in irrigated plantations free from ischolar_main diseases suggest that the wilt diesase of shisham may be controlled in diseased areas by irrigation.
