Out of ten fungicides and two neem fomulations assayed in vitro against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary causing stem and pod rot of dolichos bean, vitavax, companion, bavistin, score, mancozeb and thiram proved to be the most effective as they inhibited the growth of fungus completely (100 %). Among the partially effective one, zineb gave the highest inhibition (88.80%) followed by neem formulations. Fungicides and neem formulations found effective and partially effective in in vitro test were further evaluated as foliar spray for the management of disease. Corresponding increase in yield was obtained by application of vitavax followed by companion and bavistin. Neem oil proved to be least effective in reducing the disease incidence and increasing the pod yield
