Maneb 486 (Figure 25) is an ethylene bis-dithiocarbamate (EBDC) fungicide used in agriculture for the control of early and late blights in potatoes and tomatoes, as well as many other diseases in fruits, vegetables, field crops, and... 

Early blight, Alternaria solani Kuhn., is a problem in some areas, particularly in. warmer climates where potato growth is not optimum. Control can be obtained by protective sprays, particularly with the organics that have been recommended for late blight control. 

The most important foliage diseases of tomatoes are the early and late blights that also attack potatoes. Because tomatoes are a warm country crop, early blight... 

Mulches, both plastic and organic, can serve as a barrier against diseases that are spread partially by soil splashing onto plants. Early blight and buckeye rot of tomatoes are examples. Mulches will not eliminate these diseases, bnt may delay their onset and eventual severity. Organic mulch applied around tomatoes while the soil is still cool may delay ripening a few days, but black plastic mulch will warm the soil and speed ripening.

Escape Shorter crop growth period and/or early ripening to be able to avoid the critical infestation period, or to have enough yield before the infestation becomes too severe (potato/late blight onion/downy mildew carrot/carrot fly) One or more monofactorial and multifactorial, durable resistance traits against pest and disease affecting yield and/or quality (scab/apple, late blight/potato, lettuce/downy mildew, yellow and brown leaf rust/wheat) weed competition by an allelochemical ability... 

In our research, we proposed a post amplification analytical method to detect F. culmorum, a pathogen causing foot rot and head blight diseases in cereals, and can produce mycotoxins such as zearalenone, deoxynivalenol, and other trichothecenes that can enter the food chain. The early identification of this fungal pathogen is therefore recommended in order to avoid crop losses and protect consumer health...

Alternaria has been knovm for centuries to cause various plant diseases such as early blight of potato and various leaf spots and fruit rot. Species of this fungus are widely distributed in soil and on aerial plant parts. Because Alternaria requires high moisture levels (28-34%) for growth, infection of seeds occurs when the seed moisture is high, either in early stages of development or after wetting of crops from rain. 

Alternaria solani is a plant pathogen and the causitive agent of early blight in solanum species. It produces numerous polyke-tides, such as solanopyrone A 51 and alternaric acid 52, and it...
