In vitro evaluation shows integrated management strategies reduce blight in marigolds, indicating effective treatments.

The study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of various fungicides and botanicals against Alternaria tagetica, which causes blight in marigold.
Conducted in vitro experiments with six fungicides and botanicals.
Tested effectiveness at varying concentrations (ppm) for each treatment.
Measured fungal inhibition percentages to assess efficacy.
Tebuconazole+trifloxystrobin achieved the highest inhibition at 100% with decreasing efficacy at lower concentrations.
Allium sativum, Azadirachta indica, and Moringa oleifera demonstrated strong antifungal activity at 2000 ppm.
Chlorothalonil showed the least inhibition across all concentrations.

Sidhu et al. (2024) studied this question.
