Abstract
Anthracnose disease of soybean [Glycine max(Linn.) Merrill] caused byColletotrichum dematium var.trauncatum (Schw.) V. Arx. was observed to cause leaf spot, stem die-back and pod blight and seed rot at Raipur inKharif (1968). The incidence of pod blight and stem die-back was recorded to be more in Clark-63 than Bragg variety under different doses of rhizobium culture, nitrogen and phosphorus application. However, the differences due to the varying doses of nitrogen and phosphorus were nonsignificant. Seed infection was 15·2 to 81·0 per cent. The weight of the diseased seed was reduced by 22·4 to 61·7 per cent.
