Fungicide tolcolfos methyl was able to inhibit the disease incidence and pathogenicity of stem rot causal agent of tomato, Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc. Under screen-house and field conditions, using tolcolfos-methyl 750 mg/l showed the disease incidences 6.2 and 18.7 percent while in control treatment disease incidences were 93.7 and 83.3 percent respectively. Compared with pentachloronitrobenzene (PCNB) 500 mg/l, the tolcolfos-methyl was more effective than those PCNB according to disease incidences that were 87.5 percent in screen-house and 75 percent in field experiment. The result suggested that disease incidence of stem rot of tomato can be reduced by soil drench of tolcolfos-methyl 750 mg/l.
