Upper limit disease occurrence was observed from Ghangra Mori and lower limit sickness was recorded from Hosri. The chemical fungicide Nativo observed 43%, 25.5% and 18.5% linear colony growth of Alternaria alternata at 100, 200 and 400 ppm, respectively. Aliete observed 52, 31.5 and 21 respectively. Carbandazm observed 52.5, 29.5 and 21mm respectively and Mancozeb observed 51, 28.5 and 20mm respectively.
