Design And Statistical Analysis Of Plant Protection Experiment, J F. Wallace Mar 1989

Design And Statistical Analysis Of Plant Protection Experiment, J F. Wallace

All other publications

An Australian co-operation with the national agricultural research project Thailand.

This short course is intended to cover aspects of experimental design, sampling and statistical analysis for researchers in Entomology and Plant Pathology.

The basic principles of experimental design are the same for plant protection research as they are in other areas of research. Problems in plant protection arise from the variation of the data, the complexity of the systems and interactions with environmental factors. In many cases, standard designs are quite adequate.

Rhizoctonia Control In Potatoes And Potato Resistance To Powdery Scab., R M. Floyd Jan 1989

Rhizoctonia Control In Potatoes And Potato Resistance To Powdery Scab., R M. Floyd

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

Trials : 88BY26, 88PE34, 88MD35

Control of Rhizoctonia solani infection of potato stems and daughter tubers was demonstrated by preplanting applications of tolclofos-methyl (RIZOLEX TM) to either cut or round seed tubers. Yield of tubers from cut seed treated with Rizolex was increased over that of cut seed cured before planting bu not when seed was cut and planted the same day. Crops grown from round seed treated with Rizolex yielded higher than from untreated round seed.

Surface sterilization of seed tubers with Sodium hypochlorite was effective in reducing stem damage but not in reducing daughter tuber sclerotes. This indicates …
