Syzygium cumini (L.) Skeels. a commercial tree species have timber and medicinal value distributed widely in India and other tropical and sub tropical regions of the world. Leaf spot are the major destructive seedling disease observed in six nurseries of Honnavar Forest Division. The severity of leaf spot was recorded upto 70.49 per cent. The healthy seedlings affected by diseases as leaf spot caused by Phoma tropica identified as the major pathogen causing leaf spot of S. cumini was isolated from naturally infected leaf samples of S. cumini collected from forest nurseries of the Honnavar Forest Division, India. The fungus was pathogenic on 3-month-old seedlings, which exhibited leaf spot symptoms within 15 days of inoculation. The effect of six fungicides, one plant extract and one bioagent were evaluated against pathogen in in vivo by employing Randomized Block Design (RBD) with two spray schedules at fortnight intervals. Among the eight fungitoxicants, Carbendazim @0.2 per cent were proven to be effective against Phoma tropica. The effectiveness of systematic fungicides was higher than that of plant extract and bioagent. It could reduce PDI to an extent of 59.09 per cent over control DASS. The next best were 0.3 per cent Copper oxychloride (49.50%) over control. Thus, the present study recommends the use of Carbendazim @0.2 per cent for control of Phoma tropica caused leaf spot of Syzygium cumini.
