Abstract

SUMMARY Benomyl (0.025% a.i.) and thiabendazole (0.05 % a.i.) applied in July, August and September to apple trees cvs. Sunset and Cox's Orange Pippin gave slightly better control of Gloeosporium spp. rots in stored fruit than captan (0.1% a.i.) applied at similar intervals. On Cox's Orange Pippin, treatment with captan at 0.1 % a.i. in July and at 0.2% a.i. in August was as effective as three sprays at 0.1 % a.i. in July, August and September in controlling both Gloeosporium spp. and Nectria galligena rots. Benomyl applied in the spring and early summer to control apple scab on orchard trees reduced the incidence of Gloeosporium spp. and Monilia fructigena in stored fruit. Pre‐harvest sprays of benomyl and captan gave good control of rotting caused by N. galligena but thiabendazole was ineffective. Post‐harvest dips of thiabendazole controlled rotting by Gloeosporium spp. butnot by N. galligena.
