Abstract: The cultivation of pomegranate is going to be increase due to high remuneration from its fruits as it is widely used as a nutritive food. Leaf and fruit spot caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides is contributing factors for the low productivity as well as economic losses among the farmers. Pomegranate leaves and fruits with anthracnose symptoms were collected from the farmer’s field. On isolation, they yielded species of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides with typical cultural and morphological characters on potato dextrose agar media. Koch’s postulates were successfully proved in laboratory by standard method. In laboratory screening of different fungicides against Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, tebuconazole 25.9% EC and hexaconazole 5% EC were found to be effective in inhibiting the cent per cent radial growth among systemic group of fungicides, while in non-systemic group of fungicides, captan 50% WP was quite effective and in case of ready mix fungicides azoxystrobin 11% + tebuconazole 18.30% SC, epoxiconazole 50g/l + pyraclostrobin 133g/l, tebuconazole 50% + trifloxystrobin 25% WG, zinab 68% + hexaconazole 4% WP were significantly inhibited the growth of test fungus underin vitro.
