What are the methods for preventing and controlling eggplant Phytophthora blight?
Eggplant Phytophthora blight belongs to the phylum Oomycota fungi, and mainly harms the fruit. Fruits near the ground are affected first, initially showing water-soaked nearly round brown lesions, which then expand to the entire fruit, with the lesions slightly sunken. When humidity is high, dense white cottony mycelium grows on the surface of the diseased part, and diseased fruits easily fall off. When leaves, stems, flowers, and other parts are infected, water-soaked, dark green, or purplish-brown lesions appear, and stems easily constrict or break. When seedlings are affected, the base of the stem becomes water-soaked and necrotic, causing damping-off.
Prevention and control methods:
1. Agricultural measures. Implement a 3-year crop rotation with non-solanaceous vegetables. Prune and remove side shoots in time, remove old leaves, keep ventilation between plants, and reduce humidity in the greenhouse. Remove diseased plants promptly when found.
2. Chemical control. In the early stage of the disease, spray for control with 58% metalaxyl-mancozeb wettable powder at 500 times dilution, or 64% oxadixyl·mancozeb wettable powder at 500 times dilution, or 68% refined metalaxyl·mancozeb water-dispersible granules at 500 times dilution.
