Abstract
An attempt was made to test available formulation of fungicides and commercially available organic products for their efficacy under laboratory condition, an experiment was carried out at Department of Plant pathology, Raichur, Karnataka, India by using poison food technique. Among the commercially available organic products tested, fatty alcohol and diluents has recorded significantly higher mycelial inhibition of 100 per cent at the concentration of 5 and 10 per cent. In case of contact fungicides propineb 70% WP, metiram 70% WP and mancozeb 75 % WP recorded 100 per cent mycelial inhibition, with respect to systemic fungicides hexaconazole 5% EC, propiconazole 25% EC and difenoconazole 25% WP and among the combi fungicides azoxystrobin 8.3% + mancozeb 66.7% WG were most effective in 100 per cent inhibition of mycelial growth of Alternaria macrospora over the control. The commercially available organic product fatty alcohol and diluents, propineb 70% WP, hexaconazole 5% EC, propiconazole 25% EC and azoxystrobin 8.3% + mancozeb 66.7 % WG were found to be effective against inhibition of mycelial growth of Alternaria macrospora.
