Three species of Trichoderma, namely, T. harzianum (Th), T. virens (Tr), and T. viride (Tv) and consortium of AMF (Myc; mixture of Funneliformis mosseae, Glomus cerebriforme, Rhizophagus irregularis) individually (Th, Tr, Tv and Myc) and in different combinations (Th+Myc, Tr+Myc and Tv+Myc) were tested. Among all the treatments, co-inoculation of Th and Myc gave highest growth and reduced severity of wilt disease of pigeon pea significantly (P< 0.05). Myc alone was sufficient for growth promotion but it was effective in terms of disease suppression when inoculated before pathogen. Fusarium reduced the shoot length, dry weight, phosphorus (P) uptake of plants, AMF colonization, spore density, and population of Trichoderma. Results clearly showed that different species of Trichoderma produced varied results with Myc.

Methods: DPPH, Nitric oxide and Superoxide oxide free radical assays were employed. Total Phenolic Content (TPC) was evaluated by Folin-Ciocalteau Method and phenolic compounds were detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
