Abstract
In two experiments in Western Samoa, benomyl gave better control of stem end rot disease of banana fruit over a range of concentrations and times of dipping than two new Japanese fungicides or several formulations of thiabendazole. Methyl thiophanate was comparable with thiabendazole but gave a better control when there was a time delay between inoculation and dipping the fruit. There was little difference between the thiabendazole formulations, all of which failed to give adequate control of the disease when there was a time delay between inoculation and dipping the fruit. Benzene thiophanate was the least satisfactory of the fungicides tested.
