Abstract

Field trials were conducted to determine the bioeffficacy of Azoxystrobin 25 SC against Powdery mildew of Chilli. Three sprays with Azoxystrobin at 150 a.i, 125 g a.i and 100 g a.i/hac were introduce on chilli plants for controlling the spread of Leveillula taurica. The results for the first and second season revealed that maximum control of powdery mildew disease is by Azoxystrobin at 150 g a.i/hac giving the maximum reduction of about 91.15 and 90.95 compared to the second season recording of 86.07 and 84.06, respectively.

Key words: Bioefficacy, yield, Azoxystrobin 25 SC, powdery mildew, Leveillula taurica.
