Seeds mycoflora, Trigonella foenum-graecum, fungicide

Trigonella foenum-gracum L. belongs to family Fabaceae commonly termed as Methi in Marathi. Seeds of the plant are bitter, mucilaginous, aromatic, carminative, tonic, thermo genic, galactagogue, astringent and emollient. Powder of seeds use in veterinary medicine, an aqueous extract of the seeds possesses antibacterial property. Seeds of fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) are infected during storage condition, which affect the germination percentage. Seeds were evaluated using blotter method to determine the fungal association. Fungal species were isolated from the internal and external seed surfaces of fenugreek, viz., Alternaria alternate, Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger, Cladosporium, Colletotrichum dematum, Mucor, Fusarium cassiae, and Rhizopus stolonifer. Fungi toxicants Antracol and Bavistin are used among them Antracol is more effective than Bavistin to control seed mycoflora of Trigonella foenum-graecum seeds. Treated seeds showed better germination percentage as well as root and shot length than control.
