Strawberry is one of the most important soft fruit crops. It is subjected to a number of diseases of which leather rot (Phytophthora cactorum) has been observed as a serious limiting factor in cultivation of strawberry, affecting both fruit quality and quantity and leads to direct economic losses. Infection occur on mature as well as immature berries. Moisture and temperature play important role in disease development. Use of polyethylene sheet and paddy straw mulch reduces the fruit rot incidence as compared to control. Soil solarization increased strawberry yield by 7 to 64 percent. Different species of Trichoderma viz., T. hamatum, T. harzianum, T. virlde and T. virens and bacterial antagonists viz., Pseudomonasnuorescens strains and Bacillus sp. were effective against leather rot of strawberry. Fosetyl aluminium and metalaxyl foliar sprays provided 82–96 percent control of leather rot.
