Biological Control of Postharvest Fruit Pathogens in Papaya
First of all, since the area of biological control is so vast, I will be restricting my talk to the area of biocontrol of postharvest fruit pathogens. Fungicides are a primary means of controlling postharvest diseases. However, as a result of public concern about the presence of synthetic chemicals in our food supply and environment, several fungicides have been banned by the U. S. Environmenta...
متن کاملFumigation of Fruit with Acetic Acid to Prevent Postharvest Decay
Acetic acid (AA) as a vapor at low concentrations was effective in preventing fruit decay by postharvest fungi. Fumigation with 2.7 or 5.4 mg AA/liter in air at 2 and 20C reduced germination of Botrytis cinerea Pers. and Penicillium expansum Link conidia to zero after they had been dried on 0.5-cm square pieces of dialysis tubing. Decay of ‘Golden Delicious’, ‘Red Delicious’, and ‘Spartan’ appl...
متن کاملBlueberry fruit response to postharvest application of ultraviolet radiation
Blueberries (Vaccinium corymbosum, cvs. Collins, Bluecrop) were exposed to ultraviolet light-C (UV-C) radiation treatments from 0 to 4 kJ/m2 rior to 7 days storage at 5 ◦C plus 2 days at 20 ◦C, 90% RH. Weight loss and firmness were not affected by light treatment. Decay incidence from ipe rot (Colletotrichum acutatum, syn. C. gloeosporioides) on fruit was decreased by 10% with 1–4 kJ/m2 UV-C li...
متن کاملPostharvest disinfestation heat treatments: response of fruit and fruit fly larvae to different heating media
The surface heat transfer efficiency of three heating media (water, and forced air with and without a water vapor-pressure deficit) was compared using four commodities: mango, papaya, grapefruit, and orange. Forced vapor-saturated-air (VFA), and water (HW) transferred heat most efficiently to the fruit surface. Thermal stress to the fruit was greatest during heating in VFA. Thermal diffusivity ...
متن کاملEffects of Ionizing Radiation on Postharvest Fungal Pathogens
Postharvest diseases cause losses in a wide variety of crops around the world. Irradiation, a useful nonchemical approach, has been used as an alternative treatment for fungicide to control plant fungal pathogens. For a preliminary study, ionizing radiations (gamma, X-ray, or e-beam irradiation) were evaluated for their antifungal activity against Botrytis cinerea, Penicillium expansum, and Rhi...
