Abstract


The effect of six fungicides i.e., tridemorph (0.02%), carbendazim (0.05 and 0.1%), wet-table sulphur (0.1 and 0.2%), mancozeb (0,2%) copper oxycbloride (0,3%) and ziram (0.2%) on powdery mildew control was studied during June. 1988, Among six fungicides evaluated, tridemorph resulted in a reduction of the disease by 87.72 per cent. Carbendazim reduced the disease by 73 05 and 73.12 percent at 0.5 and 0.1 percent concentrations, respectively. Wettable sulphur (0.1 and 0.2%) reduced the disease by 61.91 percent and 69.49 per cent, respectively.
