The aim of this study was
to determine the prevalence of seed-borne fungal pathogens of jute and their
control with plant extract. The experiment was carried out in seed pathology
centre, Bangladesh Agricultural University to obtain relevant information about
the health of jute seeds and find out the efficacy of extracts as seed-treater.
Two varieties viz., Deshipat(Corchorus capsularis)and
Tossapat(Corchorus
olitorius)were selected for this study and jute seeds were collected from two
different locations of Bangladesh. The major predominant identified fungi were Colletotrichum corchori, Macrophominaphaseolina, Fusarium spp.,
and Botryodiplodiatheobromae. Least
seed-borne fungi were found in the variety of Tossapat. Low germination of
seeds was found related to high prevalence of seed-borne fungal infections.
Highest seed-borne infection was obtained in the variety of Deshipat. In this
study, we evaluated some major
