Other claims from this paper (18)
- Intervention effect Benomyl and arsenic or mercury compounds were more effective than any of the other materials tested in suppressing sporulation of Monilinia fructicola from overwintering infections in peach.
- Intervention effect Benomyl effectively suppressed sporulation of Monilinia fructicola from infected peach peduncles and mummified peach fruits.
- Intervention effect Benomyl applied to dormant peach trees was not phytotoxic.
- Intervention effect Sodium arsenite at 0.1% and 0.3% was an effective eradicant of Monilinia fructicola in peach peduncles and mummified peach fruit.
- Intervention effect Sodium arsenite was phytotoxic to peach trees at rates as low as 0.01%, whether applied in mid-winter or at early bud-swell.
- Intervention effect Sodium arsenite was phytotoxic to apricot trees at rates as low as 0.01%, whether applied in mid-winter or at early bud-swell.
- Intervention effect Phenylmercury chloride (PMC) was an effective eradicant of Monilinia fructicola in dormant peach trees.
- Intervention effect Mercury acetimide at 0.06% Hg was an effective eradicant of Monilinia fructicola in dormant peach trees.
- Intervention effect At lower rates the mercurials were unsatisfactory as eradicants.
- Intervention effect No phytotoxicity was observed following dormant applications of the mercury compounds.
- Intervention effect Lime-sulphur plus oil was the best of the remaining materials tested.
- Intervention effect DNOC performed about as well as lime-sulphur on peach peduncles.
- Intervention effect DNOC failed to suppress sporulation on mummified peach fruits.
- Intervention effect DNOC was occasionally phytotoxic.
- Intervention effect Sodium pentachlorophenate was superior to pentachlorophenyl acetate at the same rate.
- Intervention effect Sodium pentachlorophenate was not phytotoxic in these tests.
- Intervention effect Bordeaux mixture, fentin acetate, N.C.I584, captan, captafol and dichlone were not phytotoxic but did not show significant eradicant or antisporulant action.
- Intervention effect There was some evidence that phenylmercury chloride (PMC) acted both as an eradicant and as an antisporulant.
