Abstract
Crop phenology and epidemiological information were used to design a reduced use fungicide program for control of Botrytis fruit rot in winter annual strawberry. Fungicide spray programs during early and late periods of the season using high and low rates of captan were evaluated with or without second peak bloom applications of fenhexamid during the 1999-2000 and 2000-2001 seasons. During the early harvest period, low rates of captan were as effective as high rates for controlling Botrytis fruit rot and maintaining yield. Late in the season, treatments with fenhexamid over the peak bloom period significantly improved control of Botrytis fruit rot and increased marketable yield. Application of both captan and fenhexamid during the second peak bloom did not reduce Botrytis fruit rot incidence or improve yield compared with fenhexamid alone during this time period. Late season applications of captan may be reduced or eliminated when bloom applications of fenhexamid are being applied without affecting Botrytis fruit rot control. The study generated new recommendations for use of low-rate applications of captan during the early season and applications of fenhexamid during the second peak bloom period for winter annual strawberry production in Florida.
