Question: asking about the control of phomopsis blight in brinjal
Answer: adopting good field sanitation, destruction of infected plant material and crop rotation help to reduce the spread of the disease. seeds obtained from disease plants should be used for planting. seed treatment with thiram (2 g/kg seed) protects the seedling in the nursery stage. spraying with dithane z-78 (0.2%) or bordeaux mixture (1%) effectively controls the disease in the field.
