Abstract: Momordica charantia is a tropical and subtropical vine of the family Cucurbitaceae, widely grown in Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean for its edible fruit. Its many varieties differ substantially in the shape and bitterness of the fruit. Bitter melon originated from the South Indian state of Kerala and was introduced into China in the 14th century. It is widely used in the cuisines of East Asia, South Asia, and Southeast Asia. Downy mildew caused by Pseudoperonospora cubensis (Berk. and Curt.) Rostow has become a serious problem for successful cultivation of bittergourd. Therefore, a field experiment was carried out on the effect of Mandipropamid 23.4% w/w SC (Revus 25 SC) against downy mildew during 2017-18 and 2018-19, at College of Horticulture, Hiriyur. Experimental results revealed that all the treatments significantly reduced the downy mildew disease severity over untreated control. Amongst all the treatments in both season significantly least disease severity of downy mildew (4.88 and 3.90%) was recorded with foliar application of Mandipropamid 23.4% w/w SC (Revus 25 SC) at 1ml/lt with highest yield of 23.16 and 21.32 t/ha respectively followed by Mandipropamid 23.4% w/w SC (Revus 25 SC) at 0.8ml/lt.
