Abstract

Abstract

No correlation was found between calcium applied at an equivalent rate of either 897 or 1,793 kg/ha in an artificial medium and the amount of pod breakdown incited by either Pythium myriotylum or Rhizoctonia solani. R. solani appeared to be the dominant organism although the isolates tested exhibited a wide range of pathogenicity to peanut pods.
