    Abstract

    Groundnut stem rot, caused by Sclerotium rolfsii, is notorious for causing significant economic losses in groundnut production worldwide. During field evaluation at two locations, Patancheru and Rajendranagar, the bioagents Trichoderma viride, Bacillus cereus and fungicide azoxystrobin performed exceptionally well. Among the various treatments, treatment T10, which consisted of Trichoderma viride and Bacillus cereus as ST (seed treatment) SA (soil application) reduced rate of azoxysrobin, proved to be the most effective in controlling stem rot of groundnut. Treatment T8, comprising of Trichoderma viride as ST SA reduced rate of azoxystrobin, and treatment T9, consisting of Bacillus cereus as ST SA reduced rate of azoxystrobin, also exhibited good control of the disease under both glasshouse and field conditions. Additionally, these treatments resulted in substantial growth and yield attributing parameters, with the highest pod yield and B:C ratio being recorded. In conclusion, the bioagents Trichoderma viride (T2), Bacillus cereus (B5) and fungicide azoxystrobin have demonstrated great potential for the effective management of stem rot in groundnut and can be utilized in field settings.
