In vitro Control of Alternaria solani, the Cause of Early Blight of Tomato

In vitro control of Alternaria solani was studied with different fungicides. Using Poison Food Technique (PFT), seven fungicides, Antracol, Benlate, Copper oxychloride, Dithane M-45, Ridomil, Topas, and Topsin were evaluated at four different concentrations (250, 500, 750, and 1000 ppm) to control colony growth of fungi . The lowest colony growth was recorded in Dithane M-45 treatment at 1000 ppm, and the highest in treatment where no fungicide was used, indicating the significance of using fungicides in controlling early blight disease in tomato
