Effect of Tolclofos-methyl on damping-off of ginseng seedlings incited by Rhisoctonia solani

인삼 모잘록병 (Rhizoctonia soEani)에 대한 Tolclofos-methyl의 효과

Tolclofos-methyl applied as seed dipping at 1,000 ppm for 3 hrs before sowing and soil drenching at the rate of 300 g ai./10 a in the middle of April protected emerging seedlings of Panax ginseng from damping-off caused by Rhiiutonia solani(AG2-1) in Yangjik Soil artificially infested with the pathogen. Germination rates with tolclofos-methyl, pencycuron, and control were 53.7%, 45.8%, and 7.5%, respectively, while the rate of the seeds at non-infested soil was 62.6%. The effectiveness of Tolclofos-methyl against the pathogen in the soil lasted upto 32 days in vitro. However, the transpiratio of ginseng seedlings increased greatly with chemical treatment, showing 0.02, 0.12, and 0.24 m1/cm2 leaf area/day at 0, 1,2, and 4 ppm a.i. of the fungicide, respectively.
