SUMMARY Single sprays of benomyl (0.025 % a.i.) applied to Cox's Orange Pippin apple in either June, July or August, controlled rotting in store by Gloeosporium spp. Post‐harvest dips of either benomyl (0.05 % a.i.) or thiabendazole (0.025 % a.i.) effectively controlled any infection surviving orchard treatment.
