Four fungicides were tested for control of powdery mildew (Erysiphe
polygoni) and leaf spot (Macrophomina phaseoli) on mungbean. Bavistin gave the
best control of both diseases and the highest yield, and was followed by
Benomyl. [EMS]

Leaf spot caused by Cercospora canescens is one of the important diseases
of mungbeans in the Punjab. The disease generally appears on leaves in August.
As a result of infection defoliation takes place which makes the plants weak
and unthrifty. The disease was very severe under low temperature (14 C) and
high humidity (85%) conditions. The sugar content of the plant also affected
the disease incidence. The late sown crop contracted significantly less disease
relative to that sown early. Three sprayings of the crop with Bavistin at the
rate of 0.07% were found to be most effective, however, maturity of the crop
was delayed. When the third spray was replaced with Dithane M-45, control was
equally effective and no delay in maturity occurred. [THHJ

Field trials were conducted in 1973 and 1974 to evalute the effectiveness
of six fungicides against Cercospora leaf spot (Cercospora canescens) of
mungbean. Bavistin gave the highest yield, followed by miltox, Blue copper-50
and Dithane M-45; Dithane Z-78 was less effective. Brestan-60 was effective in
controlling the disease, but was phytotoxic, and therefore, did not raise
yield. [THHJ

A field evaluation of Zineb 83%, Blitox 50, Benlate 50W, captan and
streptocycline for control )f Cercospora leaf spot of mungbean (Cercospora
cruenta) revealed that all your chemicals reduced the number of of spots/leaf.
The best control was recorded in Benlate-treated plots. [THH]
