Abstract
The effect of Physical factors such as temperature, light and pH on the growth of Fusarium solani causing dry rot of Elephant Foot Yam was studied. The Benomyl sensitive Fs-09 and resistant Fs-03 isolates of F. solani were selected for this study. Maximum growth of both sensitive and resistant isolates was obtained at 28°C and no growth was noted at 0ºC, 4ºC and 10ºC. The growth of sensitive and resistant isolates was maximum at pH 7.5. Among different light spectra, growth was more under red, green and blue light. Resistant isolate had higher growth rate as compared to sensitive isolate of F. solani.
