Item Effect of organic soil amendments on plant growth and intensity of sheath blight of rice(Kerala Agricultural University, 1975) Rajan, K M; Ramanatha Menon, MItem Field evaluation of fungicides against Corticium sasakii (Shirai) matsumoto causing sheath blight on rice(Kerala Agricultural University, 1976) Mathai, G; Varadarajan Nair, PItem Effect of fungicides and silica in the control of sheath blight disease of rice caused by Corticium Sasakii (Shiriai)(Kerala Agricultural University, 1981) Mathai, G; Paily, P V; Menon, M RResults of field experiments conducted at Vellayani, Kerala during 1974 indicated that Hinosan was significantly superior in reducing sheath blight disease intensity and in increasing the yield of rice due to better disease control. Application of silioa (250 and 500 kg/ha) had significant effect in reducting the disease intensity on the 75th day of sowing. Crude silica content in the plant was high at the 40th and 80th day of sowing but was low on the 60th day. Positive correlation was observed between the amount of applied silica and the crude silica content of plant.
