Excerpt from The Efficacy of Fungicides in the Control of Certain Genera of Plant-Pathogenic Fungi: A Literature Review
From the reported data on disease control over the period 1942-1952, an evaluation was made of the comparative effectiveness of 17 types (33 formulations) of fungicides against 23 plant - pathogenic species in four genera of fungi. Disease control was the sole criterion with no consideration given to phytotoxicity, undesirable residues, or cost. A formula was devel oped for calculating the control - index for each fungicide. Four standards (zineb, ziram, fixed copper, and bordeaux mixtures) Were used as comparisons.
