Remaining fungi showed intermediate effects
on shoot length. P. aphanidermatum adversely affected
development of roots thereby caused maximum reduction in
root length. Next adversely affecting fungi were F. oxysporum
(112.0 mm), Rhizoctonia sp. (112.0 mm), Fusarium solani (112.6
mm), M. phaseolina (112.6 mm), Pythium sp. (112.6 mm) and
other fungi. On the contrary, T. viride promoted the root length
as evident from increase in root length (121.0 mm) followed by
control (118.0 mm).
