Sclerotium and fusarium caused relatively low wilting 18.58% and 17.42%, respectively. They had no effect on the number of harvested leaves, quality index and crop value. Wilting was less severe in plots fertilized with higher levels of nitrogen (60-120 kg N/ha) and the percentage of wilting ranged 12.50 to 15.42%. The level of nitrogen did not affect the number of harvested leaves, grade index and crop value. Highest yield (2.65 t/ha) was produced using 90 kg N/ha. Biggest leaf area was obtained from Fusarium infected plants fertilized with 120 and 90 kg N/ha and Sclerotium infected plants fertilized with 120 kg N/ha.
