Abstract

Palm oil (Elaeis guineensis Jacquin) occupies an important place in the Ivorian economy. However, its cultivation is subject to numerous attacks by pests and fungal pathogens. The aim of the present work was to evaluate in vivo and in vitro the antifungal effect of three synthetic fungicides at different concentrations on the evolution of curvulariosis in palm oil nurseries in Côte d’Ivoire. To this end, a trial was carried out in the Boubo palm oil nursery to evaluate in vivo the effect of synthetic fungicides on the severity and incidence of curvulariosis. Samples of leaves showing characteristic symptoms of the disease were then taken from the palm oil nursery and sent to the laboratory for analysis. Two fungi were isolated from these symptoms. These were: Fusarium sp., and Curvularia sp. Among these fungi, Curvularia sp. was the most isolated, with an isolation frequency of 94.28%. The in vitro effect of the three synthetic fungicides on mycelial growth of the Curvularia sp. fungus showed that only the synthetic fungicide Flash (Benomyl) was effective, with a higher inhibition rate of 70.77% on mycelial growth of the pathogen at the 50 ppm concentration. The same was true for disease development in the nursery. These results indicate that Flash fungicide is best suited to the control of curvulariosis in palm oil nurseries.
