Abstract

Of the different integrated seed treatment options tested for the manage ment of Alternaria blight of sunflower, highest benefit was obtained in the seed treatment with Carbendazim+Iprodione (Quintal) at 0.3% in water along with hexaconazole foliar spray (0.1%) followed by seed treatment with Pseu domonas fluorescens (0.8%) in jelly+hexaconazole foliar spray. Efficacy of Pseudomonas fluorescens as seed dresser can be enhanced by bio-priming the sunflower seeds for the effective and eco-friendly management of Alternaria blight of sunflower.

Keywords: sunflower, Alternaria blight, integrated seed treatment options, bio-priming
