N2  - Anthracnose  disease  caused  by Colletotrichum  gloeosporioidesis  one  of  the serious  post  harvest  diseases  in  mango  growing  regions  of  the  world.    The  use  of antagonistic  microorganisms  is  a  new  option  for  suppression  of  this  disease.    The current  study  evaluated  the  efficacy  of  selected  antagonistic  microorganisms  for  the control of post harvest anthracnose disease in mango.Three  antagonists,  three  spore  concentrations  (viz.  1{u00D7}106,  1{u00D7}107and1{u00D7}108spores  per  ml)  and  time  of  application  were  evaluated  in  a  factorialexperiment  for biological control of this disease.  The spore concentration of 1{u00D7}108spores per ml of antagonist gave highest disease inhibition percentage. Among three antagonists (viz. Candida utilis, Candida sake and Trichoderma harzianum), C.  utiliswas  the  most  effective  compared  to  other  two  in  reducing anthracnose   disease,   which   was   even   better   than   currently   used   warm   water treatment.   It was  also found that the application of the antagonists and  warm water treatment before pathogen infection gave a better control than delayed application.
