Introduction
• Extension Cotton Specialists Working Group
• Research initiated in response to:– Pyraclostrobin (Headline™) – 2007 – Azoxystrobin (Quadris™) – 2008– Incidence of foliar disease over past
several growing seasons
Common Diseases• Alternaria – lesions with brown or purple margins
– Older lesions have concentric rings with center falling out in some
• Cercospera – small red lesions that enlarge and have white to brown center
– Avoid all stress – esp. potassium, destruction of residue
• Ascochyta – light brown lesions that coalesce on leaves– Lesion have dark brown borders
• Stemphylium - small circular brown lesions with concentric rings– Older lesions have a white center which can drop out.
