Popis: Control of silver scurf on daughter tubers was obtained by imazalil applied to seed tubers as a pre- or post-storage treatment or as a furrow treatment (at time of planting), in three field experiments. Post-storage and pre- and post-storage combination treatments provided consistent results. The most effective treatment in the first and second experiments was the combined pre- and post-storage application of imazalil. However, separate pre- and post-storage treatment also significantly reduced the incidence compared with the non-treated control. No differences were observed between dosages of 15 and 30 g a.i. of imazalil per ton of seed tubers.
