Phytophthora Crown Rot
• Phytophthora cactorum
![Page 4: 2020 Strawberry Disease Update - virginia-beach.ext.vt.edu€¦ · 2020 Strawberry Disease Update Chuck Johnson Virginia Tech Southern Piedmont AREC Blackstone, VA. Image courtesy](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022071015/5fce1e362735fe77f429d3df/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Controlling Phytophthora Crown Rot
•Ridomil Gold•Best applied thru the drip
•1 pt/treated acre (½ pt/planted acre)•Only ~½ of each crop acre actually “under plastic”
![Page 5: 2020 Strawberry Disease Update - virginia-beach.ext.vt.edu€¦ · 2020 Strawberry Disease Update Chuck Johnson Virginia Tech Southern Piedmont AREC Blackstone, VA. Image courtesy](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022071015/5fce1e362735fe77f429d3df/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Controlling Phytophthora Crown RotField Sprays After Planting
•Phosphite (53.6%), 2½-5 pt/A, or
•Aliette WDG (80%), 2½-5 lb/A .

Orondis Gold Premix = Orondis + Ridomil
• Rate = 24-27.8 fl oz/acre
• Equivalent to: • 4.8 fl oz Orondis Gold 200 &
• 8 fl oz Ridomil Gold

Controlling Anthracnose Crown RotPotential New Pre-Plant Dip
• Zivion S (Natamycin L)
– Natamycin also known as pimaricin
–a stable aqueous suspension of natamycin crystals, a natural
fermentation product of Streptomyses natalensis.
– unique mode of action (FRAC 48): a fungistat
• prevents fungal spores from germinating
• reduces initial hyphal growth, but no effect on subsequent mycelial
growth or on other microbes.

Controlling Anthracnose Crown RotPotential New Pre-Plant Dip
• Zivion S (Natamycin L)
– food safety additive (mushrooms, citrus, stone fruits) since
1960s.
– a “biofungicide” exempt from EPA tolerances & “generally
recognized as safe” by FDA.
– resistance never recorded within filamentous fungi
![Page 14: 2020 Strawberry Disease Update - virginia-beach.ext.vt.edu€¦ · 2020 Strawberry Disease Update Chuck Johnson Virginia Tech Southern Piedmont AREC Blackstone, VA. Image courtesy](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022071015/5fce1e362735fe77f429d3df/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Controlling Anthracnose Crown RotPotential New Pre-Plant Dip
• Zivion S (Natamycin L) Pre-Plant “Dip”
– bare-root or cut-off plants or perhaps also tips
– plants/tips should be free of excess soil before dipping
– 6-12 fl oz Zivion/10 gal water
– requires pre-mixing and continuous/frequent agitation
– “Dip” = immerse for 2-5 minutes
– inactivated by light?

For a reduced fungicide program
• Spray at FIRST bloom
• Apply subsequent sprays before predicted wet weather
• Increase time between sprays when weather is dry
• End sprays ~26-30 days before expected final harvests (early May?)
• 4 sprays may be sufficient (on average)
![Page 27: 2020 Strawberry Disease Update - virginia-beach.ext.vt.edu€¦ · 2020 Strawberry Disease Update Chuck Johnson Virginia Tech Southern Piedmont AREC Blackstone, VA. Image courtesy](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022071015/5fce1e362735fe77f429d3df/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
COVERAGE!!
• Goal = 100%• Poor coverage = 1 of most common factors leading to poor
strawberry disease control
• Captan, Thiram = contact fungicides
• Single Site fungicides = limited translaminar fungicides

Strawberry Fruit Rot Management:Row or Directed Sprayers

Image courtesy Andrew Landers, Cornell University
Strawberry Fruit Rot Management:Boom Sprayers
• Spray beds AND row middles
• Good coverage only to upper leaves, not below
• Flat fan tips (large droplets)
• Poor spray angle to foliage
• Boom generally too far away (>4-8 inches)
![Page 30: 2020 Strawberry Disease Update - virginia-beach.ext.vt.edu€¦ · 2020 Strawberry Disease Update Chuck Johnson Virginia Tech Southern Piedmont AREC Blackstone, VA. Image courtesy](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022071015/5fce1e362735fe77f429d3df/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Image courtesy Andrew Landers, Cornell University
Strawberry Fruit Rot Management:Boom Sprayers
• Use broadcast spray volumes and rates
• High pressures; different tips/nozzles?
• Lower booms closer to plant canopy (8 inches)
• If possible, angle tips
![Page 31: 2020 Strawberry Disease Update - virginia-beach.ext.vt.edu€¦ · 2020 Strawberry Disease Update Chuck Johnson Virginia Tech Southern Piedmont AREC Blackstone, VA. Image courtesy](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022071015/5fce1e362735fe77f429d3df/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Strawberry Fruit Rot Management:Row or Directed Sprayers
• “Better adapted” to fields that are:• Flat
• With Straight Rows
![Page 32: 2020 Strawberry Disease Update - virginia-beach.ext.vt.edu€¦ · 2020 Strawberry Disease Update Chuck Johnson Virginia Tech Southern Piedmont AREC Blackstone, VA. Image courtesy](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022071015/5fce1e362735fe77f429d3df/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Strawberry Fruit Rot Management:Row or Directed Sprayers
• No spray to row middles
• Closer to the crop (lower) so better spray penetration to interior of plants
• Directed nozzles also improve spray deposition
• Match spray volume to canopy size:
• 3 nozzles/row early
• 5 nozzles/row later

• Goal = minimum concentration to kill fungal spores• Example: 1.9-3.8 lb Captan 80WDG/100 gal/acre
• Medium rate = 2.8 lb /100 gal or 1.4 lb/50 gal
• High rate = 3.8 lb/100 gal or 1.9 lb/50 gal
• Medium rate at 50 gal * 6 sprays = 137oz (8.6 lb)
• High rate at 50 gal*6 sprays = 182 oz (11.4 lb)
• High rate at 12 gal 1st spray, 25 gal at 2nd-3rd sprays, 50 gpa at 4th-6th sprays = 128.9 oz (8.1 lb)
