title: Variation in Rhizoctonia bataticola isolates.
abstract: Variation among eight isolates of Rhizoctonia bataticola from different hosts with regard to growth rate, effect of media, sclerotial number and size, effect of incubation temperature, fungicides, and virulence was studied. The isolates varied with regard to above characters. Isolates from brinjal and beans were highly virulent and less sensitive to fungicides. The study indicates the existence of different strains within R. bataticola.
