abstract={<i>Capsicum annuum </i>L. is an important tropical and subtropical vegetable and spice crop due to its high consumption, nutritional and cash value to farmers and consumers. It has a specific nutritional value due to presence of biochemical compounds such as capsteam; a volatile fatty oil, capsaicinoids, carotenoids, potassium, folic acid, protein, fiber, mineral elements and vitamins etc. Despite serious threats have been posed by many fungal pathogens to the chili crop worldwide; maximum losses occur in capsicum are due to the Anthracnose disease caused by fungal pathogen <i>Colletotrichum </i>sp<i>. </i>The biocontrol management is playing crucial role and promoted widely in control of Anthracnose disease, mainly because of its ability to control variety of fungal diseases and also enhancing the crop production in an environment friendly manner. This review article attempts to highlight an occurrence of Anthracnose disease on an economically important <i>Capsicum annuum </i>L. (chilli) along with its biocontrol management strategies.},
