%X Several fungicides were evaluated for the control of black-end and squirter diseases caused by Nigrospora sphaerica, in banana fruit using a technique of artificial inoculation and incubation simulating natural conditions. Satisfactory control was obtained with benomyl at a concentration (in dipping solutions) of 10 p.p.m., with three formulations of thiabendazole at 100 p.p.m., and with two formulations of salicylanilide at 1000 p.p.m. Parbendazole and 2-phenyl benzimidazole, each at 1000 p.p.m., did not give satisfactory control.
