Claim · model-written summary
Integrating grafting and reduced methyl bromide always gave significantly lower wilt incidence (75 to 100% reduction) than untreated plots.

Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Grafting onto cv. Brava (Cucurbita maxima) rootstock reduced wilt by 63 to 100% in two experiments.
- Intervention effect The same Brava rootstock reduced wilt by 35% in one experiment.
- Intervention effect The reduced methyl bromide rate suppressed disease, but variably (32 and 91% reduction in the two experiments).
- Intervention effect Grafting alone significantly reduced wilt incidence by 84 to 87% compared with untreated plots.
- Recommendation Because control by each measure alone varies, integrated application is preferable.
