ABSTRACT
Pineapple (Ananas comosus L. Merr) production in Uganda is being constrained by a diversity of factors including pineapple heart rot disease (PHRD). Information on PHRD causal pathogen is limited. Also, management options are clear. The objectives of this study were, therefore, to identify the casual pathogens causing PHRD and assess the in vitro reaction of the causal pathogens to fungicides. Pathogen isolation was done using amended corn meal agar. Macro and micro-morphological characteristics of the isolates were assessed. Pathogenicity of the isolates was tested using healthy pineapple plants based on Koch's postulate. In vitro reaction was determined using I 0% V8 media amended with 0.1 g/L Metalaxyl, 0.1 g/L Victory 72 powder, 0.01 g/Land 0.001 g/L Metalaxyl, 0.01 g/L and 0.001 g/L Fosetyl Al and unamended V8 media as a control. There was a significant difference (P
