Description

Phenolic compounds were assessed for their ability to suppress development of causal agent of Petri disease Phaeomoniella chlamydospora. Phenol, cresol and thymol used in "in vitro" assays effectively suppressed the mycelial growth of thisfungus on Petri dishes and also in grapevine wood segments artificially inoculated with P. chlamydospora. Consequently,these compounds were used for a soak treatment of grapevine propagation material and their phytotoxicity was evaluated.Results of this study suggest that phenol and cresol could be potentially used for control of P. chlamydospora.
