Abstract:

This research was conducted to study the effect of three fungicides from different chemical groups (thiophanate methyl, quinosol and fosetyl aluminum) in reducing the incidence of vascular wilt disease in tomato caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici in protected agriculture. The fungicides were applied by irrigation twice by 15 days intervals between them. The role of these fungicides was also studied in the stimulation of some resistance indicators such as the activity of peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase and total phenol content. The tested fungicides contributed in reduction of the infection severity compared with the infected control. After 60 days, the intensity was 30.7, 35 and 27.3%, respectively, for quinosol, fosetyl Aluminum and thiophanate methyl compared with the infected control (78%). The efficacy was 67.4, 62.5 and 70.29%, respectively. The studied fungicides also contributed in stimulation of the resistance indicators. Thiophanate methyl outperformed on quinosol and fosetyl aluminum in increasing the activity of peroxidase and poly phenol oxide and the total phenol content after 30 days of treatment.

Keywords:
