Quarantine efficacy of three anti-bluestain formulas sold in Chile, in a simulated export process involving sawn Pinus radiata timber

Abstract

Three anti-sapstain products were tested on sawn Pinus radiata timber in the Eighth as well as in the Tenth Regions of Chile. The fungicide products were Combo Antiblu (a mixture of Antiblu 375 and Antiblu CC), Wolsin FL 12215 and Sinesto B. Results showed that the products were more effective in the Tenth Region than in the Eighth Region. Of the three products tested, Combo Antiblu had the best characteristics in both Regions.
