reduced lesion growth of at least one of the five fungi inoculated onto detached fruit. Postharvest application of dithianon statistically significantly reduced rots, prochloraz reduced rots to some extent, but none of the other fungicides tested (boscalid, boscalid/pyraclostrobin, fluazinam, Kocide 3000) were effective. Because results of laboratory tests are not always directly applicable to field results, fluazinam, boscalid, boscalid/pyraclostrobin, QST713 and Biostart Target should be tested as spray applications in the orchard. Dithianon was an effective fungicide when applied postharvest and should also be field tested.
