A study was carried out to evaluate the efficacy of ten plant extracts against Phleospora maculans (Bereng) Allesch. both by inhibition zone technique and conidial germination technique on potato dextrose agar (PDA) medium each at three different concentrations viz. 5 percent, 10 percent and 15 percent with carbendazim 50WP () as control. Among botanicals tested, the extract of Allium sativum (Garlic) has shown maximum inhibition of mycelial growth ( ), whereas, minimum inhibition was recorded in Morus alba ( ) irrespective of concentrations. The extracts of Datura stramonium inhibited the maximum conidial germination of percent, whereas, Urtica dioica inhibited the minimum conidial germination of percent irrespective of concentrations. | Studies on management of leaf spot disease of mulberry Morus spp. through the use of botanicals
