FROM STUDIES ON POSSIBILITY OF PROTECTING BLUE SPRUCE (Picea pungens Engelm.) AGAINST FUNGI. PART I. LABORATORY ASSESSMENT OF ANTIFUNGAL ACTIVITY OF SELECTED FUNGICIDES

Abstract

The antifungal activity of two fungicides, i.e. Rovral Flo 255 SC and Sportak Alpha 380 EC was determined by in vitro tests to 12 fungal species isolated from blue spruce (Picea pungens) and its cultivar Glauca. It was found that Sportak Alpha 380 EC has the highest antifungal activity and the widest range of application to all fungi under examination. Rovral Flo 255 SC has shown significantly poorer activity.
