Resumen
Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) root rot is an increasingly important disease in
Minnesota. Current control consists of seed treatment with Captan, Streptomycin and Lorsban. However, in the last few years, root rot has become more common because of the increased acreage and use of susceptible cultivars.
The objectives of this study were to determine the causal organisms involved in root rot in Minnesota and to examine chemical and cultural factors that may be important in its control. A survey was conducted during the summers of 1997,1998 and 1999 in Central Minnesota (Park Rapids, Perham and Staples areas) involving in fields with previous history of bean root rot.
