For that advice you should consult the label. Try finding out specifically what kind of mildew you have first (assuming that is what the problem is). The most common types are powdery and downy mildew. I'm guessing that you have powdery because of the white stuff, but you can look at some pictures of the two on-line to verify this for yourself.
My memory says that they use sulfer for powdery mildew on mangoes. The trouble is that because of high levels of fungicide use, some mildews have built up resistance to certain fungicides. If you only get partial control, switch to a different fungicide rather than spraying the same one again.
You may also notice that the affected leaves turn brown after applying a fungicide. Typically, this happens because the mildew had already killed the leaf cells, but they had not had time to dry up yet.
That is pretty much what I know, I hope it helps. My miracle berry never suffers from fungus problems, so I can't give you more specific advice.
That appears to be a mildew. Since the leaves are curling it is probably harmful. You might want to use a fungicide.
I have seen loquats that are as big as oak trees. I have also seen loquats in 25 gallon pots
full of fruit. I have three different types I grafted and they are still in pots. I recently bumped
them up to 15 gallon pots and am trying to figure out their spot in my yard.
My trees are flowering now and I don't see fruit set yet? Are you growing in a
greenhouse? If you are do you have pollinators available this time of year?
Are air layered longans good potted/houseplants?
No. Are you looking for a houseplant as in decorative or trying to fruit something indoors?
trying to fruit, do you have any suggestions?
Are you keeping in the house year round? Where in the house? Light source, temps and humidity?

Salaks could be grown in containers, just needs a climate controlled greenhouse with high humidity and temps never below 60...its ultra tropical, thorny, and slow growing. Sorry to discourage you, but growing them in a temperate climate isn't gonna happen.
