The present study entitled “Evaluation of fungicides against leaf rust of wheat incited by Puccinia triticina Eriks” was conducted to evaluate effect of six different fungicides (T₁)Azoxystrobin 18.2% w/w + Cyproconazole 7.3% w/w SC @ 0.1% (T₂) Azoxystrobin 18.2% + Difenoconazole 11.4% w/w SC @ 0.1%, (T₃) Tebuconazole 50% +Trifloxystrobin 25% WG @ 0.1%, (T₄) Mancozeb75%WP @ 0.25%, (T₅) Propiconazole 25% EC @ 0.1%, (T₆) Tebuconazole 25.9% w/w @ 0.1% against the leaf rust of wheat, the study’s finding showed that, of the different fungicides treatments, (T₃) Tebuconazole 50% + Trifloxystrobin 25% WG @ 0.1% was the most successful, as evidenced by the significantly higher grain yield (29.11 q/ha), plant height (80.95 cm), 1000 grain weight (49.19 gm) and dry matter yield (54.11 q/ha), all these results superior over the tested fungicides and untreated control.
