N2  - Control of Pleiochaeta setosa diseases of lupins was compared in 8 field experiments using Rovral (iprodione) and Sumisclex (procymidone) as either seed dressing or fertiliser-applied treatments. Seed-dressing application was more effective than fertiliser application for control of brown spot. Rovral and Sumisclex provided very similar control of brown spot in most comparisons, but Sumisclex occasionally provided significantly better control. Pleiochaeta root rot was controlled by Rovral seed treatment at 1 location and by all Rovral and Sumisclex treatments at a second location. When used at 1 location, Armour (flutriafol) on superphosphate provided significant control of brown spot but not pleiochaeta root rot. Fungicide seed treatment did not reduce Phomopsis leptostromiformis stem lesioning. Significant yield improvement following fungicidal control of P. setosa occurred in 4 experiments.
