A. H. SHAIKH AND A. GHAFFAR*
Abstract
Using wet sieving and dilution technique, the sclerotial population of Macrophomina phaseolina in soil amended with poultry manure and sawdust was studied. Sclerotial population of M. phaseolina declined after 15-day period where poultry manure @ 1, 3 and 5%w/w was used. No significant change in sclerotial population was observed where sawdust was used.
