Table 7:
Frequency% of common fungi in potato at various sampling dates as influenced by Trichoderma viride and T. virens alone or combined with pomegranate extract and under field conditions.
1Each value is average of 5 replicates. 2Means in each column, denoted by the same small letter are not significantly different according to Duncan`s multiple range test (P = 0.05). B = before sowing, M= at mid- growing season and E= at harvest time. Mean*= M+E/2
