| dc.description.abstract | This study is specifically concerned with the effect of Caprylic Acid and
Glycolic Acid towards control of Ascomycete Fungus Mycosphaerella
Fijiensis (Morelet) causing Black Sigatoka in bananas especially of the
Cavendish variety. The treatment was made by mixing the Caprylic Acid and
emulsifier and then gradually adding water. After which, the mixture was
amended with different volume concentrations of Glycolic Acid and kept at
room temperature. In-vitro bioassay procedure was employed for the testing of
the treatment using different delivery rates. The bioassay analysis was done at
Lapanday Agricultural and Development Corporation Research Laboratory.
The data were collected after 48 hours of incubation period. The effectiveness
of the treatment was determined through the measurement of the germ tube
length in comparison with the untreated sample. The results reveal that the
treatments were very effective in controlling the germ tube length of the
fungus. This was evident as to no growth in the germ tube was recorded. Also,
all the treatments showed the same effect throughout the samples. Hence, the
use of Caprylic Acid in the control of Ascomycete Fungus Mycosphaerella
Fijiensis (Morelet) should be considered.
