Abstract

A field study has been conducted at Horticulture Research and Extension Station, Devihosur on the management of anthracnose of chilli caused by Colletotrichum capsici using 7 treatments in 3 replications following Randomized Block Design. Pyraclostrobin (0.1%) recorded significantly least PDI than all other treatments and it was found significantly superior over Chlorothalonil (0.16%), Carbendazim (0.1%) and Mancozeb (0.3%). Yield was found maximum in Pyraclostrobin @ 0.1% (7.23 q/ha) than all the treatments and was on par with Pyraclostrobin @ 0.75% (7.05 q/ha). The fungicides Viz., Carbendazim (7.10 q/ha), Chlorothalonil (7.05 q/ha) and Mancozeb (6.81 q/ha) were also recorded on par yield. No phytotoxicity symptoms were observed at all stages of crop growth by the application of Pyraclostrobin.
