Brief Project Summary:

While research has demonstrated the biological control material Contans WG has been effective in controlling the sclerotia of white mold in the greenhouse and research plots (field scale plots are planned for 2010), factors effecting Contans WG efficacy need further testing (such as soil moisture, temperature, fertilizer, pesticide, etc.). In addition, newer products are being released and need an independent evaluation.
