Author:  Comments Off on Webcast on Management of Frogeye Leaf Spot and Fungicide Resistance

There is a 14 minute webcast on the Plant Management Network on Management of Frogeye Leaf Spot and Fungicide Resistance that provides some basic knowledge on FLS disease, its management, and fungicide resistance.

The webcast will help consultants, growers, and other practitioners better understand management strategies for frogeye leaf spot in light of QoI fungicide resistance that has developed in the pathogen population. It discusses the current distribution of QoI fungicide resistant Cercospora sojina (the fungal agent of frogeye leaf spot disease in soybean); results from trials conducted on QoI fungicide resistant isolates in the lab and field, and management strategies for frogeye leaf spot and fungicide resistance in soybean. Funding for the webcast was provided by the United Soybean Board.
