چکیده
Objectives: 1. Develop a weather-based model for scheduling fungicide applications to improve disease control and reduce fungicide usage. 2. Evaluate efficacy of various products for control of apple powdery mildew. 3. Evaluate reduced DMI and strobilurin fungicide programs, in combination with inorganic salts, for control of powdery mildew. 4. Evaluate various reduced fungicide programs, alone or in combination with natural products, for control of powdery mildew. 5. Determine relationships between mildew severity during bloom through petal fall and fruit russet at harvest. New, additional objective for 2004: Evaluate chemical thinning products in combination with fungicides for both thinning and control of powdery mildew.

Management of Powdery Mildew in Squash by Plant and Alga Extract Biopesticides
Although many fungicides are registered for use to control powdery mildew on cucurbits, management of resistance to fungicides in pathogen populations still remains a major challenge. Two biopesticides Regalia SC and HMO 736 were evaluated in the greenhouse and field for their efficacy against powdery mildew in squash. In greenhouses, Regalia SC alone significantly (P < 0.05) reduced powdery mi...
متن کاملManaging Cucurbit Mildews: New Challenges and New Opportunities
There are two mildew diseases affecting cucurbit crops: powdery mildew and downy mildew. Both fungal pathogens produce wind-dispersed spores that can be moved long distances, thus they cannot be avoided. Fungicides and resistant varieties have been important for managing these diseases. Unfortunately, both pathogens have demonstrated ability to evolve new strains that are not controlled as effe...

Rhizoctonia solani is an important soil-borne pathogen which has a broad host range and cause damping-off or rottenness of root and crown of cultivated plants. The combined use of different control methods in IPM programs is an effective strategy against pathogens and is useful especially in resistance management programs. In this study, EC50 and EC25 values of three conventional chemical fungi...

Cover: Scanning electron micrograph of 7-day-old colony of powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis f.sp. tritici) on a wheat leaf. Insert shows a 2-day-old colony at higher magnification. Although the sensitivity of mildew populations towards certain fungicides has changed considerably over the years, implementation of resistance management strategies has helped to sustain an overall satisfactory deg...
متن کاملFungicide Resistance Management
Fungicides are important tools for managing diseases in many crops. Unlike insecticides and some herbicides which kill established insects or weeds, fungicides are most commonly applied to protect healthy plants from infection. To be effective, fungicides must be applied before infections become established and in a sufficient spray volume to achieve thorough coverage of the plant or treated ar...
