Impact of Biological Control on White Mold Sclerotial Survival and Disease Severity in Subsequent Resistant and Susceptible Bean Crops

Objectives:

To evaluate the impact of Contans applications and reduced tillage on:
1) sclerotial survival,
2) sclerotial colonization by Coniothyrium minitans and other fungi,
3) apothecia production in the field in subsequent years, and
4) disease incidence in subsequent susceptible and moderately resistant bean crops.
