Evaluation of Malaysian Isolates of Trichoderma Harzianum Rifai and Gliocladium Virens Miller, Giddens and Foster for the Biological Control of Sclerotium Foot Rot of Chilli

Sclerotium foot rot of chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) caused by Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc. is commonly found to cause damage in almost all the chilli growing areas in Malaysia. Conventional methods to control the disease, for example, fungicide drenching and crop rotation, seem to be uneconomical an...
