Phomopsis vexans is one of the most cataclysmic pathogens inciting substantial losses in eggplant. The pathogen causes over 50 per cent loss in production and productivity in various parts of the world. The present investigation was carried out to evaluate the performance of various fungicides like Carbendazim 0.2%, Mancozeb 0.1%, Carbendazim + Mancozeb 0.1%, Thiophanate methyl 0.15%, Chlorothalonil 0.1%, Copper oxychloride 0.3%, Carboxin0.1%, Propineb 0.2%, Tricyclazole 0.1%, Tebuconazole 0.1%, Hexaconazole 0.1%, Difenoconazole 0.2%, Azoxystrobin 0.1%, Tebuconazole + Azoxystrobin 0.1% and Metalaxyl + Mancozeb 0.1% against Phomopsis vexans by poison food technique in PDA medium. All the fungicides significantly reduced the growth of fungus included under investigation. Among all Carbendazim exhibited maximum growth reduction of 94.29% followed by Carbendazim + Mancozeb with an inhibition of 94.21%, Metalaxyl + Mancozeb displayed least inhibition of about 71.28%. Tebuconazole exhibited third best control over the growth of the fungus with an inhibition per cent of 93.98%.
