Abstract

In vitro studies at chlorine concentrations of 10 50 100 300 500 and 1000 micro g/ml a.i. were conducted to test the effect of chlorine water on Phytophthora palmivora MF4 originally isolated from diseased roots of pepper Piper nigrum L. plant. Good mycelial growth inhibitions 44-98 were obtained only during the first 3-4 days after treatment. The ED50 value was 34 micro g/ml a.i. The potential use of chlorine as an alternative chemical to control the disease is discussed. Further trials are presently being conducted.
