“…Currently, several studies have documented the use of botanical in the management of anthracnose of mango [38][39][40]. At the pre-harvest of mango anthracnose disease, studies has showed that aqueous extracts leave of Eucalyptus camaldulensis and Azadirachta indica inhibited the mycelia growth of C. gloeosporioides in vitro and also under field conditions, the foliar application of the extracts reduced the incidence and severity of anthracnose on mango plants [38].…”

“…Botanicals can be used for the eco-friendly management of both the pre-and post-harvest anthracnose disease of mango [39]. Their studies reported that the pre-harvest anthracnose disease of mango was effectively controlled by the foliar application of aqueous extracts of Azadirachta indica, Eucalyptus camaldulensis, Allium sativum, Zingiber ofcinale and Calotropis procera, and at the post-harvest stage, mango fruits sprayed with the botanicals reduced the anthracnose infection of the fruits and improved their quality.…”

Mango is one of the frequently cultivated seasonal fruit crops in several tropical and subtropical regions. It is consumed as whole fruits apart from serving as raw materials for most industries that are into mineral production. Mango production is, however, constrained by diseases, pests, and poor post-harvest handling of fruits. Anthracnose disease, caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides Penz and Sacc, is one of the most important yields limiting constraint in mango production across the globe. The disease occurs in both the field and post-harvesting. In the field, it affects aboveground parts, such as the stem, branches, leaves, flowers, and fruits. Anthracnose disease reduces the shelve life and marketability of mango fruit. In Ghana, anthracnose disease is responsible for about 30% yield/fruit loss. Most farmers do not control it, although some have resorted to the application of various fungicides not registered for mango anthracnose disease management in Ghana. This chapter will highlight on the importance of the disease on the mango industry in Ghana, control strategies currently employed thereby reducing the over-reliance on chemical control option and propose ways to minimize the effect of the disease in the country.

“…Since Pakistani soils are fertile and suitable for growth of many groups but at the same time agriculture activities and soils are exposed to different pests and contaminants. Myriad of approaches have been adopted for the remediation of pesticides and other contaminants, (Iram et al, 2019;Iram et al, 2019a, b;Ifthikhar et al, 2019;Ifthikhar et al, 2018), however, achievement of higher efficiencies remains an issue, due to which minimal use of all pesticides is recommended. In 1954, the agrochemicals were used for the first time and to date this use had elevated to 254 metric tons.…”

Thiabendazole, 2-(4'-thiazolyl) Benzimidazole fungicide is rampantly used in Pakistan for controlling fungalgrowth in addition to combating various fungus driven diseases. Thiabendazole leaching and mobility patterns can beeasily predicted through investigation of Thiabendazole adsorption and desorption behavior in soils. Present work iscarried out by conducting a batch equilibration experiment for evaluation of Thiabendazole adsorption and desorption insoils from four diverse Pakistani climatological regions. Data revealed Thiabendazole had moderate to weak adsorption inselected soils with distribution co-efficient Kd(ads) ranging from 13.33 to 24.04 µg/ml in selected soils. The TBZ adsorptionin soils best fitted with Freundlich model (R2>0.87). The Freundlich adsorption coefficient (Kf(ads)) values ranged from4.51 to 8.90 µg/ml. Thiabendazole adsorption trends in the selected soils were positively influenced by the clay contentand soil organic matter while it was negatively influenced by soils’ pH. The Freundlich desorption coefficient (Kf(des))values spanned over a range of 1.03 to 6.43 µg/ml indicating decreased desorption from soils with creditable affinities forThiabendazole adsorption. The adsorptive interactions between Thiabendazole and selected soils were primarily physicalconfirmed through lower values of Gibbs free energy ∆G ≤ - 40kJ/mol. Thiabendazole desorption was highly hysterical inall soils with profound irreversibility. Thiabendazole possessed medium mobility patterns in selected soils. The loweradsorptive capability of Thiabendazole in selected soils points towards its lower application rates for combating long termenvironmentally perilous implications.

“…Pakistan is an agronomic country dependent largely on agricultural systems for economic growth. The fertile lands are constantly exposed to the attack of vicious pests negatively affecting different crops and agricultural regions, for which different efforts have been made for remediation (Iram et al, 2019;Iram et al, 2019a, b;Ifthikhar et al, 2019;Ifthikhar et al, 2018). Moreover, environmental compartments are still continuing to be affected by contamination and pests.…”

The adsorption and desorption phenomenon of synthesized Benzimidazole based fungicide, 2-(3’-pyridyl)benzimidazole (PyBlm), was investigated by batch equilibrium method. Four soil minerals were utilized for thesorption studies including; alumina, silica, muscovite and montmorillonite. Highest value of adsorption coefficient(Kd(ads)), obtained for montmorillonite mineral (Mx (Al, Fe, Mg4) Si8O20 (OH4)) was 2779 µg ml-1. Highest rate ofadsorption is attributable to its considerably large surface area of 628 m2g-1 and highest inter-lattice d-spacing, 10 Å.Highest desorption (Kd(des)) was also observed in montmorillonite mineral (21.45 µg ml-1). Montmorillonite thusdisplayed increased sorption capacity for PyBlm among all tested minerals. Hysteresis coefficient ranged from 0.58 to3. The results were statistically evaluated by using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Furthermore, statisticalevaluation done with the help of Minitab 17 expressed the good fitting of the obtained results, which was shown bymeans of residual plots. Current research which suggests the variable adsorption and desorption of PyBlm expresses theprofound dependence of PyBlm interaction on the physicochemical characteristics of the selected minerals. Allminerals except montmorillonite expressing poor adsorption signifying the percolation of PyBlm through them towardsthe lower soil profiles. Results obtained in the present research show of that montmorillonite in firmly interacting withthe PyBlm molecules and thus alleviating the possibility of PyBlm percolation to lower soil profiles.
