In onion, among the postharvest diseases, black mold rot caused by Aspergillus niger is the
predominant one. The pathogen is transmitted by contaminated seed or soil. The infection
usually begins at germination of onion seeds and may continue throughout storage. The
purpose of the study was to explore the control of black mold of onion with various
systemic, non systemic and combination of fungicides by treating the seeds. Considering
per cent reduction of radial growth of Aspergillus niger, non systemic fungicide dinocap
(90.28) and thiram (80.28), systemic fungicide carbendazim (100) and tebuconazole (100),
and combination of fungicides tebuconazole + trifioxystrobin (100) and pyraclostrobin +
epoxyconazole (100) were recommended to use in pot trail. Out of these six different
fungicides tebuconazole + trifioxystrobin treated seeds gave minimum per cent mortality
23.33 and maximum per cent germination 83.33 and vigour index 1091.62, respectively
under pot trail.
