Abstract
Late leaf spot, caused by Nothopassalora personata, is the most economically important fungal disease affecting peanut foliage in South Carolina and can result in combined management and yield loss costs of greater than 490 dollars/ha. Application of protectant fungicides is a critical part of effective integrated management under commercial production, and their strategic alternation and combination in management programs can provide enhanced control. Trials were conducted in Blackville, SC, from 2017 to 2019 to investigate whether combinations of prothioconazole with fluxapyroxad plus pyraclostrobin could provide more efficacious management of late leaf spot compared to either product alone. Two applications of 0.11 kg/ha prothioconazole with 0.05 kg/ha fluxapyroxad plus 0.1 kg/ha pyraclostrobin resulted in significantly (p < 0.05) less (24% to 42%) peanut canopy defoliation compared to the same number of applications of either product applied individually, with the combined application reflecting significant (p < 0.0202) synergism compared to component products as assessed through independent action methodology. An increased rate of fluxapyroxad plus pyraclostrobin application (0.1 and 0.2 kg/ha, respectively), with 0.16 kg/ha prothioconazole did not improve management relative to their combination at the examined lower rate (p = 0.89). Peanut yield was not adversely affected following combined applications. Cost-effectiveness of this combination depends on the actual disease intensity and yield potential of a given crop.
