Management Strategies For Rhizoctonia Of Processing Beetroot
This project confirmed that Rhizoctonia is the principal cause of field symptoms and evaluated the role of boron deficiency, other pathogens and insect damage. It also identified which strain or strains or Rhizoctonia are responsible for field symptoms and investigated which other plant species act as alternative hosts in rotation crops. Finally, it devised and implemented disease management strategies based on cultural and chemical treatments.
