Dizon, T.O. | Reyes, T.T.
Placing the inoculum together with the seed was more effective method of inoculation in screening cotton for resistance to Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc., Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn and a combination of both than by mixing the inoculum with the soil. High inoculum levels yielded a corresponding increase in the number of plants that were infected regardless of inoculation techniques and pathogens used. Four to 16-day old plants were susceptible to both pathogens inoculated singly. However, when inoculated in combination, plants were infected up to 24 days after planting. Inocula remained infective up to 14 days in the soil
