Abstract

Chili (Capsicum annuum L.) is common vegetable crop in India, which is grown for both unripe (green) and ripe (red) fruit. Damping-off, wilt, anthracnose, dieback, root rot, bacterial wilt and other diseases all damage chili crop. Damping-off caused by Pythium aphanidermatum (Edson) Fitz. In nurseries, is major restriction in chili growing, causing 62 percent seedling mortality and 90 percent plant death either as pre-emergence damping off or post-emergence damping off in nursery fields, and is very common issue in fields and greenhouses, where organism kills newly emerging seeps.

In mutualistic symbiosis arrangement, endophytes are plant-colonizing microorganisms. They are present in most habitats, where they promote immune responses, exclude plant pathogens by niche rivalry, and engage in antioxidant activities and phenylpropanoid metabolism, which generates plant defense, structural support, and survival molecules.
