Abstract:

Guava (Psidium guajava L.) is an important fruit crop of India and is considered to be poor men’s apple. Its production is low in India because of several important diseases by which it suffers. Among diseases, Anthracnose is one that impairs the quality and has become a serious obstacle for the cultivation of guava fruits. Keeping in view the significance of the problem, research was conducted to screen the different chemicals under in vitro for the management of the disease. Among combi fungicides evaluated, SAAF, MATCO and SECTIN completely inhibited mycelial growth of the pathogen at all the three different concentrations (100 %). Similarly under systemic fungicides, Hexaconazole and Difenconozole showed 100 per cent inhibition under 500, 1000 and 2000 ppm followed by Thiophanate methyl (55.33 %).
