The present study was carried out by using different bioagents and botanicals for management of citrus canker on four months old kagzi lime seedlings, Among the different botanicals treated, Garcinia indica fruit rind extract was found be effective in management of citrus canker under nursery condition by reducing the per cent leaves infection (81.55%), number of shoots infected (73.24%) and per cent leaf area infection (82.63%). This was followed by bioagent treatment consisting of soil and aerial application of Lysinibacillus xylanilyticus (VK-6B), which recorded 77.11 per cent, 71.43 per cent and 80.70 per cent, respectively.
