EFFICACY OF FOLIAR FUNGICIDES IN CONTROLLING POST HARVEST ANTHRACNOSE OF MANGO (Pages : 1 - 4)

A field trial was conducted at the Regional Horticulture Research Station, Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute, Chapai Nawabganj, Bangladesh during February to July 2013, to test the efficacy of 23 new foliar fungicides against post-harvest anthracnose of mango. None of the fungicides under investigation was able to control the disease completely. Out of 23 fungicides Sun Fiter (Hexaconazole + Tricyclazole), Cymoxil 72 WP (Cymoxanil + Mancozeb) and Shabab 10 EC (Hexaconazole) were the most effective fungicides to control postharvest anthracnose of mango. Among the fungicides only four fungicides i.e. Oboni 75 WP (Tricyclazole), Mexazole 5 EC (Hexaconazole), Enster 5 EC (Hexaconazole) and Samriddhi (Mancozeb) were not able to control more than 80% of the disease. Other fungicides were able to control more than 80% of the disease. Shabab 10 EC (Hexaconazole), Dizim Plus 50 WP (Iprodione + Carbendazim), Iprodazim Plus (Iprodione + Carbendazim) were the better fungicides to control of mango blackening fruit surface followed by Adbhazim 50 WP (Carbendazim), Harizim 50 WP (Carbendazim), Ranzole 32.50 EC (Azoxystrobin + Dificonazole), Icozeb 80 WP (Mancozeb), Two- in one 250 SC (Hexaconazole + Tricyclazole).
