Guava (Psidium guajava) is an important tropical fruit crop of India and is known as “apple of the tropics”. It is grown and utilized as an important fruit in tropical countries like India, Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh and South America. Among the biotic and abiotic diseases of guava, guava infected by scab disease [Pestalotiopsis psidii (Pat.) Mordue] is an economically important and reported average yield losses in the range of 12-18%. An experiment was conducted during 2023 at Horticulture garden, Main Agricultural Research Station, University of Agricultural Sciences, Raichur during 2023 to understand the influence of various weather parameters on the guava scab disease development. The results revealed that, irrespective of the varieties, interaction among maximum temperature, minimum temperature, maximum relative humidity, minimum relative humidity, rainy days and rainfall showed significant positive correlation with guava scab disease. And the incidence and severity of guava scab was found to be 23.21, 56.00 (Allahabad Safed), 32.45, 68.50 (Lucknow 49) and 85.00, 74.51 (Arka Kiran) respectively.
