The effect of nitrogen rates (20, 45, 60, 75, 100 and 125 kg/ha) on rhizome rot (caused by Pythium aphanidermatum) of ginger was investigated in a field experiment conducted in Bihar, India, during 1998. The minimum disease incidence of 15.00% and maximum yield of 261.25 q/ha were recorded at 75 kg N/ha treatment.
