Abstract:Epidemic processes and yield losses of early leaf spot (Cercospora arachidicola) and web blotch (Phoma arachidicola) of peanut were analyzed in the field plots. The results showed that there were no significant correlations between the two diseases at the early stage when they occurred together, but the negative correlation between the two diseases gradually increased with the development of the disease. This phenomenon showed that there was an inhibitory effect between the two diseases. Disease severity was different when C. arachidicola and P. arachidicola were inoculated in the different growth stage, early leaf spot and web blotch were more serious when C. arachidicola and P. arachidicola were inoculated in the early flowering stage and the flowering stage than in the late flowering stage, and the results demonstrated the inhibitory effect. The yield loss when two diseases occurred together was less than the sum of that caused by each individual disease. Yield loss of Baisha1016 caused by the two diseases occurring together was about 77.2%-85.7% of the sum of yield loss that caused by the corresponding individual disease. Yield loss of Silihong caused by the two diseases occurring together was about 76.1%-79.6% of the sum of yield loss that caused by the corresponding individual disease. The yield losses of two cultivars were both reduced gradually with the delay of inoculation period at the different growth stage.
