Evaluation of Tolclofos-methyl for Control of Pod Rot of Peanut Caused by Rhizoctonia Solani in Oklahoma
Abstract
Evaluation of fungicides for control of peanut pod rot incited by Rhizoctonia solani in Oklahoma was investigated in this study. Sensitivities to tolclofos-methyl and pentachloronitrobenzene of naturally occurring isolates of R. solani and Rhizoctonia-like fungi were assessed in a defined medium containing the fungicides. Microplot and greenhouse studies were employed to evaluate the efficacy of tolclofosmethyl in reducing populations of~ solani, reducing peanut pod rot and in increasing yield.
