Healthy
plants provide healthy production resultant to healthy life. Plant
Pathologist’s are always concerned to devise suitable management strategies for
healthy plants to increase production. The nature gives choice to manage these
plant diseases incurred by numerous biotic and abiotic factors which are
myriad. Physical, cultural, biological, and chemical methods are categorized
management methods to hamper the losses. The tremendous advancements in science
and technologies are shaping the plant pathologists to frame new techniques to
suppress the invading pathogens that impart diseases to plants. The diverse
methods of management techniques have imparted plant pathologists with better
future hope. The meticulous efforts of plant pathologists should be flashed and
discoursed. This symposium provides a vibrant platform to all the plant
