Abstract: Brinjal or eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) belongs to the family Solanaceae which contains 75 genera and over 2000 species. Phytoplasmal little leaf disease is economical important capable of causing yield losses up to 40 per cent. The commonly encountered disease symptoms were leaf curling or cupping, reduced leaf size, reduced the petiole length, proliferation of auxiliary shoots, flowers malformed into leaf like structures (phyllody), yellowing and stunted plants growth and death of little leaf infected brinjal plants.

For the management of brinjal little leaf disease insecticides, oils and antibiotics were used among this all antibiotic were recorded as effective for management of brinjal little leaf followed by insecticides and oils. The effect of integrated management on brinjal little leaf disease can be controlled by treatment with spraying of insecticide i.e. Dimethoate followed by spraying of Neem oil 1000 ppm and Tetracycline @ 500 ppm.
