ABSTRACT
Evaluated the efficacy of different management methods under in vivo condition i.e. two chemicals, Captan and Mancozeb (2.5g/kg), two bioagents Trichoderma harzianum and Pseudomonas fluorescens (5g/kg) and hot water treatment (55⁰C for 30 min) as seed treatment. Mancozeb among chemicals was found effective to reduce per cent disease index (PDI) at 75 and 105 days after transplanting (DAT) whereas, Captan was found to reduced maximum PDI at 90 DAT. In case of bio agents T. harzianum was found effective for reduced maximum PDI at 75, 90 and 105 DAT while hot water treatment was found least effective. Among the combination treatments (i.e. Captan + Neem extract, Mancozeb + Garlic extract, T. harzianum + Captan and P. fluorescens + Carbendazim) in comparison to T. harzanium + Captan was found most effective with least per cent infected fruits (9.29%), disease incidence (6.67%), disease severity (5.36%) and disease index (4.70, 7.03 and 9.62%) at 75, 90 and 105 DAT respectively.
Key words: Chilli, Anthracnose, Colletotrichum capsici, Fungicides, Botanicals, Bioagents, PDI.
