Summary Five chemicals were applied to batches of wounded potato tubers by dipping in 1.5 g litre solutions for 1 min. After incubation for 10 days at 15 C under damp anaerobic conditions the amount of bacterial soft rotting was assessed. 5-nitro-8-hydroxyquinoline was the most effective in reducing rotting but 8-hydroxyquinoline, SD740823AX and chlorine dioxide also gave some control. Elbadyne had no significant effect. The results of tests in vitro were in broad agreement with those of tests in vivo for 5-nitro-8-hydroxyquinoline, 8-hydroxyquinoline and SD740823AX, but not Elbadyne and chlorine dioxide. The feasibility of controlling soft rotting by chemicals is demonstrated and screening procedures are discussed.
