- Abstract
The problem of environmentally friendly treatments against most important diseases affecting potato crops continues to represent a challenge With this aim was conducted this research, which approaches alternative solutions in fighting against Phytophtora infestans Mont. de Bary attack in potato. Unconventional treatments with aqueous solutions of 1.1% and 2.2% of Allium sativum L., and selenium enriched Allium sativum L. were used. The trial was developed in 2013, within specific conditions of Transylvanian Plane - Pădurenii village, county of Cluj (47° 04' 14'' N, 24° 00' 0'' E), in 1 hectare experimental field, in a private farm, using a genuine potato variety, named Redsec. The best results were obtained when unconventional treatments of aqueous solutions 1.1% Allium sativum L. (GA2 = 3.11%) and selenium enriched Allium sativum L. (GA6 = 3.54%) were used. The less effective treatments were those with conventional products, Alcupral 50 PU (GA4 = 5.73%) and Infinito 687.5 SC (GA5 = 5.18%), respectively. The analyse of the multiple correlations between average temperature of experimental period (17.64 °C) anf average humidity of experimental period (66.16%) and late blight average attack degree, reveals that they are positive, with different intensities, from intermediate to strong.
