Abstract

Efforts made in the present investigation to evaluate few commonly used fungicides for their comparative efficacy against Phytophthora infestans (Mont.)de Bary-the incitant of late bight, with a view to select the most effective fungicide for the management of the disease. Among the seven fungicides, two fungicides namely Cymoxanil 8% + Mancozeb 64% and Dimethomorph 50% were found most effective in pot evaluation which could reduce the disease to an extent of 99.98% and 99.95%, respectively when applied before appearance of disease. The same fungicides could protect 99.84% and 99.69% of the crop when applied after 1% appearance of the disease.
