Abstract
Effect of different concentrations of indole-3 ylacetic acid, indole butyric acid and alpha-naphthalein acetic acid on the growth of Hendersonula toruloidea Nattrass, causing brown rot of fruits of Malus sylvestris Mill was studied. It was observed that indole acetic acid and alpha-naphthalein acetic acid supported good growth of the fungus in lower concentrations (0.1 & 0.5 ppm) but at 50 ppm the growth was inhibited. Indole butyric acid promoted the growth at the concentration of 50 ppm but an inhabitation in growth was observed at lower concentrations.
