A variety of fungicides (Topsin, Folicur, Quadris, Procure) were applied as drench treatments to trays of seedlings in which Thielaviopsis basicola had been diagnosed as the cause for stunted and yellowing plants. Plant vigor ratings and growth measurements were taken. There appear to be materials that may be helpful to growers who find seedling resulting from Thielaviopsis basicola early in the production season.
