1 indicates that the maximum growth inhibition of seed borne fungi of rice were observed in Trichoderma
viride (42.59 to 73.33%) followed by Bacillus subtilis and Psuedomonas fluorescens over control. Significant
suppression of radial mycelial growth of Drechslera oryzae by Trichoderma viride, and Trichoderma harzianum in
