SUMMARY Sporulation from sclerotia of Botrytis cinerea Pers. ex Pers. on grapevine canes was suppressed for 14 days in laboratory trials by tar/petroleum oil, but not by other materials tested. Dichlofluanid gave the most effective control of B. cinerea during the growing season, but benomyl and the substituted hydantoin fungicide, iprodione, reduced fruit infection significantly. Completion of fermentation was delayed in juice extracted from fruit harvested eight days after the final spray of dichlofluanid or chlorothalonil had been applied.
