THE SYNERGISTIC EFFECT OF TRICHODERMA AND SOIL AMENDMENTS IN CONTROLLING RHIZOME ROT IN GINGER

V. R. S. Rathore*

ABSTRACT

Rhizome rot in ginger (Zingiber officinale) is a main constraint in production, triggered in the main with the aid of soil-borne pathogens which includes Pythium spp., Fusarium spp., and Ralstonia solanacearum. The integration of biocontrol sellers like Trichoderma with soil amendments offers a sustainable and environmentally friendly sickness management method. This review explores the synergistic results of Trichoderma and numerous organic and inorganic soil amendments in controlling rhizome rot, improving soil health, and selling plant increase. Mechanisms including mycoparasitism, opposition, antibiosis, and brought on systemic resistance contribute to the efficacy of Trichoderma. Additionally, organic amendments like farmyard manure, neem cake, and vermicompost offer favorable situations for Trichoderma proliferation, while inorganic amendments like lime and silicon useful resource in ailment suppression. The combined utility of Trichoderma and soil amendments improves pathogen control, soil fertility, and plant resilience. Despite promising consequences, demanding situations such as field variability, method optimization, and farmer adoption want in addition studies. Future research must consciousness on molecular interactions, system upgrades, and massive-scale validation of integrated disease management strategies to decorate ginger production and sustainability.
