Abstract:
Six varieties of rice (Oryza sativa l.). viz. MTU 1121, MTU 1061, MTU 1064, MTU 1224, Sona masuri and Swarna collected from Andhra Pradesh State Seed Development Corporation Ltd (APSSDC. Ltd.) Tanuku, West Godavari District, Andhra Pradesh were tested for the detection and identification of seed borne mycoflora and to ascertain their management by various methods viz. Standard blotter paper, Agar plate, 2,4-D and Rolled paper towel methods. Agar plate method recorded the highest seed infection (68.13%) among all the methods tested.

Standard blotter paper, Agar plate, 2,4-D and Rolled paper towel methods. Agar plate method recorded the highest seed infection (68.13%) among all the methods tested.
A total of 7 seed borne mycoflora including saprophytic and pathogenic were found associated with all the 6 varieties of rice viz. Fusarium moniliforme, Curvularia lunata, Trichoconiella padwickii, Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger, Rhizopus sp. and Rhizoctonia sp.
Different fungicides used to investigate their effect on seed born mycoflora of rice. Seed treatment with fungicides indicated that Carboxin (37.5%) + Thiram (37.5%) DS @ 2 g/kg seed was most effective in reducing the frequency of seed borne mycoflora (96.43 to 100%) and also highest germination % was observed in the seed treatment with Carboxin (37.5%) + Thiram (37.5%) DS (84.33%).
