| Abstract: | A non-sporulating isolate of Alternaria brassicae, inoculated on callus culture of Brassica juncea cv. Kranti, colonized the callus and produced spores. When captafol, a fungicide, was added (100 mg/l) to the callus culture medium, if effectively checked fungal contamination and saprophytic growth of A. brassicae on culture medium, without adversely affecting callus growth or establishment of dual culture. |
