Effect of famoxadone, tebuconazole and trifloxystrobin on Agaricus bisporus productivity and quality

Regarding sporophore whiteness at harvest and after cool storage, carbendazim at 1.2 g m−2 gave better results than prochloraz, famoxadone or trifloxystrobin applied at the same rate. A deviation in sporophore colour at harvest and after cool storage was observed only in the presence of tebuconazole at 1.2 g m−2. Split applications of the fungicides did not favour whiteness retention under cool storage.
