L. c. Raniere. University of Del
aware plant pathology department,
reported on a study of how irriga-
ton influences disease develop
ment on tomatoes. Findings indi-
cate, he said, that relative humidity,
dew formation, and temperature
are directly concerned with the
termination of fungus spores caus-
ing tomato anthracnose.
In a study of pepper anthracnose
and it's control, r. w. Smith of the
Delaware plant pathology depart
ment, noted that three applications
of zineb or maneb (2-100) applied
at 14-day intervals beginning about
four weeks after blossoming have
been found to give satisfactory con-
troll.
A study on the development of
MOSAIC resistance in peppers con-
Quoted by DR.. Crossan and Rain
revealed, Crossan said, the varie-
ties Yolo Wonder A., Keystone Re-
sistant Giant, and the selection Cal
del were highly resistant to the
virus.
T. ]. Nugent, Virginia Truck Ex-
pertinent Station, in reporting on
fungicides for downy mildew con-
troll in fall cucumbers, said that
although varieties resistant to
downy mildew are now being
grown for the production of fall
cucumbers, the use of fungicides
for the control of this disease, as
well as other leaf and fruit dis
eases, is still important. Also, he
continued, interest in combination
sprays for multiple disease con-
troll is becoming popular for many
crops.
5Speaking on the utilization of nj
trogen by peas, w. L. Hollis, Uni
versity of Maryland, reported that
yield, growth, and nitrogen uti'.-
cation as Influenced by nitrogen ap-
piled in mixed fertilizer, Cyanamid
and ammonium nitrate, were COM
pared. Each carrier, as a single
source of nitrogen, increased
yields over no nitrogen treatments,
he said.
Discussing the effect of fungi
cidal sprays on yield and disease
control of tomatoes, ]. G.. Kantzes,
University of Maryland, emphasiz-
ed the effectiveness of maneb and
zineb in preventoing defoliation.
Maneb is particularly effective in
controlling gray leaf spot, Kantzes
declared.
