Six fungicides were used either alone or in binary combination to control Fusarium solani f. sp. phaseoli. Of the three methods of application used, seed treatments and soil drenches were the best, although phytotoxicity was evident in some instances. Application as a seed soak for 1 h proved to be the worst method with most treatments showing signs of phytotoxicity. The results are discussed with reference to the use of fungicide mixtures to control foot rot of beans.
