Abstract : The results are given of 2-year trials on the control of Colletotrichum gloesporioides by tribasic copper sulphate and cupric hydroxide, with or without the surfactants Nu-Film-17 or Triton B-1956. Both fungicides gave good control, and the addition of either surfactant improved control. In one year yields of marketable fruit were also enhanced by fungicide + Nu-Film-17.
