Abstract
Symptoms, biomanagement and integrated management of fungal, bacterial and viral diseases, nematode pests, disease complexes and insect pests of medicinal crops (coleus, ashwagandha, sarpagandha, aloe vera, soda apple, kacholam, henbane, stevia and safed musli) using PGPR alone or PGPR integrated with physical and cultural methods, botanicals, bioagents and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are discussed.
