Abstract
The Four different preservatives, camphor, asafoetida, naphthalene and boric acid were used to test their efficacy in controlling the mycoflora of fenugreek. Boric acid followed naphthalene Camphor and asafetida eliminated majority of seed borne mycoflora of fenugreek. Maximum reduction in the germination, seedling length and seed vigour was observed by asafoetida followed by naphthalene and camphor. Boric acid showed higher germination, seedling length and seed vigour than the control (untreated).
