Abstract

The duration of control (days after spraying that the mean percent leaf area affected remained less than 5%) of stripe rust of wheat with a single foliar spray of either propiconazole or triadimefon on wheat cultivars differing in susceptibility to the disease was determined. Both chemicals were equally effective, giving control for 21 days on susceptible cultivars (Avocet, Zenith, Halberd), 30 days on Olympic (moderately susceptible — moderately resistant) and 54 days on moderately resistant Condor.
