Abstract: These studies were carried out in six mango cultivars to assess the intensity of malformation and evaluate the control measure of the malady through removal of the infected shoots during 1999-2000 and 2000-2001. The malformation was found highest in cv., Anwar Retaul (56.63%). Mango cvs., Chaunsa and Malda borne medium percentage of malformation i.e., 44.05 and 43.05%, respectively. The intensity was moderately low in Dusehri and Langra with values of 36.73 and 34.48%. The malformation susceptibility was found lowest in Sensation (16.51%). The removal of the malformed shoots at pea size stage of fruit development, resulted in reduction of the malady on an average of 60.79% in the subsequent year. However, the response of different varieties to removal of affected shoots for the control of the disease was variable.
