Which develops a black exterior and white to beige interior several days later moldy growth and black sclerotia are characteristic of this disease, that cause also to a very loose in the crop. Efficacy of application of some agricultural practices, i.e. plant density, breeding of seedlings, irrigation, fertigation and transplanting date on control of white mold disease that caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum was examined under greenhouse conditions during summer seasons (2016/2017) in Belco Egypt Co. Farm Sadat city, Menoufia governorae.
