Alternaria leaf blight of sunflower caused by Alternaria helianthi is an important disease of sunflower. The study conducted on in vitro evaluation of new molecules of fungicides and plant extracts against Alternaria helianthi, causal agent of Alternaria blight of sunflower. In vitro evaluation of fungicides revealed that, among four systemic fungicides hexaconazole and propiconazole were highly effective in inhibiting the mycelial growth with 100% inhibition among non systemic fungicides the maximum inhibition of mycelial growth was found in captan (86.30%) at 600 ppm concentration followed by copper oxy chloride (84.07%) whereas, among the botanicals neem seed kernel extracts at 10 per cent(43.74%) showed positive effect on inhibition of pathogen mycelium growth followed by neem leaf extracts(25.26%). Trichoderma harzianum shows the best bio agents against Alternaria helianthi with highest per cent inhibition (72.48%).
