Growth and sclerotial formation of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum occurred within the temperature range 10 to 25deg C, the optimum being at 20 to 25degree C. A temperature range of 15 to 20degree C, however, was found to be the most favourable for number and dry weight ofsclerotia whereas, size of sclerotia was maximum at 5degree C and progressively decreased with the increase in temperature. One to 2 months of preconditioning showed increased myceliogenic and carpogenic germination. Ascospores started germinating within 4 h at a temperature range of 5 to 25degree C (optimum 20degree C). Spore germination increased with increase in incubation period even at sub-optimum temperatures of 12degree C. As leaf wetness of pea (cv. Lincoln) increased, infection efficiency of S. sclerotiorum increased. Sclerotia of S. sclerotiorum were found to survive more than a year in soil. Sclerotial germination and decomposition decreased with increasing soil depth under wet humid conditions whereas the reverse occurred in snow bound areas in Himachal Pradesh, India.
