- Intervention effect Fungicides significantly reduced potato late blight infection versus unsprayed plots in both seasons.
- Association The variety by fungicide interaction differed significantly for disease severity control in 2017.
- Association The variety by fungicide interaction differed significantly for tuber yield in 2017.
- Intervention effect Matco and Boss reduced late blight severity relative to Bacticide and Mancozeb in 2017.
- Intervention effect Fungicides did not differ significantly in 2016 under low disease pressure.
- Observation Sprayed plots yielded 21.82 to 30.47 t ha -1 in 2016.
- Observation Sprayed plots yielded 20 to 36.84 t ha -1 in 2017.
- Observation Unsprayed plots yielded 10.63-18.63 t ha -1 in 2016.
- Intervention effect Fungicide spraying gave a mean yield advantage of 62% over unsprayed plots.
- Intervention effect Moderately resistant cultivars combined with Matco at two sprays 10 days apart reduced late blight yield loss and damage.
