Tim Momol, Jeff Jones, Steve Olson, Aleksa Obradovic, Botond Balogh, and Paula King ( September, 2002 )

Summary

Bacterial spot causes serious problems every year on tomatoes in Florida. Results derived from our research program are being used to design an effective IPM program that aims to reduce copper use on Florida tomatoes while maximizing bacterial spot control with environmentally sound disease management practices. Also, by reducing the use of copper based bactericides, the amount of copper that enters the soil system will be diminished.
