- (a)Ps Psedumonus fluorescence, Tr Trichoderma harzianum
- (b)Mean values of root-rot and damping-off diseases incidence calculated up to 30 days of sowing as follows: disease incidence no. of infected plants/no. of sown grains X 100
- (c)The percentage of each disease incidence was calculated as follows:
- disease incidence no. of infected plants/no. of total plants X 100
- (d)Means ± standard deviations within a column followed by the same letter are not significantly different by Duncan multiple range test at P < 0.05
