Abstract: Among the fungal diseases sheath blight caused by Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn is one of the most widely distributed disease of rice. In this regard for the management of this disease; seven treatment combinations viz. Tricyclazole 20%+ Tebuconazole 16% SC @ 2.0, 2.25 ml/l, Tricyclazole 75 WP @ 0.60 g/l, Tebuconazole 25% @ 1.5 ml/l, Hexaconazole 5% EC @ 2.0 ml/l, Carbendazim 50%WP @1.0 g/l and check were evaluated against sheath blight of rice on the susceptible variety Pusa basmati-1 under field condition. Among the new fungicides combination Tricyclazole 20%+ Tebuconazole 16% SC @ 2.25 ml/l was found best in checking the disease severity (29.5%, 22.3%) and increase the grain yield of rice (53.8%, 58.9%) over check.
