Abstract
The Bayleton® seed treatment protects pine seedlings against fusiform rust for at least 4 weeks after sowing. If nurserymen use treated seed, no more than three foliar sprays are needed during the season. These can be timed to give maximum protection during the most hazardous period and adequate protection for the remainder of the infection season.
