Effect of the addition of a fungicide to glyphosate applied postemergence on crop injury, disease control, and corn yield

Abstract

The addition of pyraclostrobin, pyraclostrobin/fluxapyroxad, pyraclostrobin/metconazole, trifloxystrobin/propiconazole, azoxystrobin/propiconazole, and trifloxystrobin/prothioconazole fungicides to glyphosate reduced disease incidence up to 19% and disease severity up to 4% compared with glyphosate alone. Fungicides evaluated can be safely mixed with glyphosate for corn production, but fungicide use was not associated with increased corn yield.
