Physiology of Rice Sheath Blight Pathogen Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn towards Different Sources of Carbon, Nitrogen and Vitamins

Rice production worldwide is affected by many biotic and abiotic stresses (Richa et al., 2016). Among biotic stresses, diseases are considered as major constraints for yield as 10 to 30 per cent of the annual rice harvest is lost due to many diseases (Skamnioti and Gurr, 2009). Most common and severe diseases in rice are blast, bacterial leaf blight and sheath blight (Wopereis et al., 2009). Sheath blight caused by Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn [Tel. Thanatephorus cucumeris (Frank) Donk] has wide geographic distribution and now occurs International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences ISSN: 2319-7706 Volume 7 Number 08 (2018) Journal homepage: http://www.ijcmas.com
