Seed-borne fungi attack seeds causing decreasing the nutritive value, changing the color, increasing the peroxide value and reduction the seed germination. Seeds of watermelon, melon, squash, bottel gourd, luff and snakcucumber were collected from Beheira, Giza and Ismailia governorates in Egypt during the seasons of 2005 and 2006 for determination seed-borne fungi. Alternaria alternate, A. solani, Aspergillus jlavus, Asp. niger, Botrytis sp., Cladosporium sp., Fusarium oxysporum, F. solani, Macrophomina phaseolina, Penicillium sp., Phoma sp., Rhizoctonia solani, Trichoderma sp. and Verticillium sp. were dominant in the tested seed samples. Rizolex-T and Vitavax-200 controlled pre- and post-emergence damping off caused by F. solani, M. phaseolina and R. solani in vitro and in vivo. Trichoderma harzianum followed by T. viride and T. hamatum checked pre- and post-emergency damping off caused by tested fungi in vitro and in vivo.
