Abstract: | The experiments were conducted at ]ames Finlay Kenya, flowers division Tarakwet farm in Kericho county from Ianuary 2016 to December 2016 to study Article Inf" the efficacy of copper oxychloride 1.0 g/L, hydrogen peroxide 1.0 mL/L, dettol 0.5 mL/L and 1,0 mL/L, agrowipe undiluted and fresh fri undiluted as control Volume 2' Issue 4' October 2020 agents of crown gall disease in roses. Crown gall causes losses of between Received 3 03 MaY 2020 75-95% on susceptible rose varieties hence the need to develop effective control Accepted : 18 August 2020 strategies. Results showed plots treated with agrowipe and fresh fri had higher Published; 05 October 2020 yield of roses, which were of better quality, longer, heavier and also inhibited do,-_. M33472/AFIB5_Z_3_Z0Z0_115421 growth of crown gall tumors and fresh crown gall growths compared to copper oxychloride at 1.0 g/L and untreated control. Dettol at 0.5 mL/L, 1.0 mL/L and hydrogen peroxide 1.0 mL/L had moderate yield of roses and crown gall control, Similar results were observed in the pot trials.
