The experiment was carried out during 2015-16 in the department of Forest Biology and Tree improvement at College of Forestry, Sirsi. In order to know the in vitro and in vivo efficacy of different biocontrol agents, plant extracts, fungicides and combi-products, both laboratory and nursery experiments were conducted. The study revealed that, Trichoderma harzianum (IOF strain) Azadiractha indica Tebuconazole250EC, Trifloxistrobin 25% + Tebuconazole 50%, 75% WC, Hexaconazole 4% + Zineb 68%, 72% WP and Hexaconazole 5% + Captan 70%, 75% WP were found effective under in vitro conditions in inhibiting the leaf spot pathogen. The combi product Trifloxistrobin 25% + Tebuconazole 50%, 75% WP has recorded the lowest disease index and found effective under nursery conditions. Thus the integrated use of biofungicides, plant extracts and synthetic fungicides have a greater role in effectively managing leaf spot disease of Nothapodytes nimmoniana which can be suggested to the growers.
