Discussion

This study reports that Mancozeb significantly delays disease progression in bananas, highlighting key fungicides.

Mancozeb showed superior disease control in bananas, effectively delaying disease onset throughout the study.
Fungicidal treatments like Pyrimethanil and Spiroxamine were less effective over time compared to Mancozeb alone.
Phytotoxicity ratings indicated no crop injury from the treatments, suggesting safety in using the fungicides.
The rapid disease progression in untreated controls emphasizes the importance of fungicidal interventions.

Cobrado et al. (2025) studied this question.
