Chilli (Capsicum annum L.) crop is vulnerable to many diseases and pests due to its extreme delicacy and succulence. Diseases caused by fungi, bacteria and viruses are major constrains to chilli production. In India, the first report of Alternaria sp. was made from Delhi by Dutt in 1937. Mathur and Agnihotri (1961) reported fruit rot of chilli caused by Alternaria tenuis Nees from Rajasthan. Sreekantiah et al. (1973) reported a virulent strain of A. alternata causing leaf spot and fruit rot of chilli from Mysore, while from Maharashtra, Khodke and Gahukar (1993) also reported Alternaria sp. associated with chilli. Bhattet al. (2000) recorded A. alternata causing fruit rot on chilli from Kumaon hillis of Uttar Pradesh, India. Narainet al. (2000) reportedAlternaria alternata causing fruit rot of chilli on fruits, as initially small blackish brown,
circular to elongated water soaked depressed lesions are formed on the pericarp of fruits, which leads to rotting of fruits in later stage. The characteristic lesions observed at semi ripe stage of chilli fruits. Fruit rot is a major constraint in chilli causing several losses in terms of quality and quantity (Sreekantiah et al., 1973). Mathur and Agnihotri (1961) and Singh (1987)
