Sclerotinia Leaf Drop of Lettuce - Testing New Fungicides and Formulations of Ronilan for Disease Control

Leaf drop of lettuce, caused by the fungus Sclerotinia sclerotionunb is a sporadic but potentially destructive disease in Arizona During the 1988-89 lettuce season in western Arizona, different fungicides and formulations of materials were evaluated in the field for disease control. All tested compo...
