This experiment was done in controlled environment using Complete Randomized Design (CRD) with four replications. Seven (7) different culture agar media viz.,(Potato Dextrose, Malt Extract, V-8 Juice, Oatmeal, Plantain, Banana, and Green Cocoa Mucillage) were tested. Mycelia growth, colony character and sporulation pattern of the fungal isolates were studied for seven (7) days of incubation at 28±1 °C. Six (6) different isolates of Thread Blight were identified.
