Fumigation 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 کاملControl of postharvest decay of citrus fruit with calcium polysulfide
Incidence of green mold of citrus, caused by Penicillium digitatum, was reduced by 80% or more by the immersion of lemons or oranges for 1–4 min in warm (40.6–43.3°C) ‘liquid lime-sulfur’ (LLS) solution that contained 0.75% (wt vol) calcium polysulfide. The incidence of sour rot, caused by Geotrichum citri-aurantii, was reduced 35–70% by this treatment. LLS was similar in effectiveness to other...
متن کاملthe effect of uv-c radiation on gray mold decay control and postharvest quality of strawberry (cv. selva)
strawberry as a very perishable fruit, is exposed to fungi pathogens especially botrytis cinerea, thus its storage life is very limited. the use of synthetic chemical compounds to control gray mold on strawberry as well as on other fruits that are directly consumed by humans, have become less and less advisable. on the other hand the use of non chemical and safe methods of controlling gray mold...
متن کاملReduction of postharvest decay in organic citrus fruit by a short hot water brushing treatment
The marketing of organic citrus fruit has markedly increased during the last few years. However, these fruits are not treated with chemical fungicides and suffer from relatively high rates of decay. In this study, we examined the possible use of a new hot water brushing (HWB) treatment, to disinfect the fruits and reduce decay development during postharvest storage. Preliminary observations hav...
متن کاملControl of Postharvest Decay of Apple Fruit with Candida saitoana and Induction of Defense Responses.
ABSTRACT The ability of Candida saitoana to induce systemic resistance in apple fruit against Botrytis cinerea was investigated. To separate the antagonistic activity of C. saitoana from its ability to induce resistance, the antagonist and the pathogen were applied in spatially separated wounds. In fresh apples, C. saitoana applied 0 or 24 h before inoculation with B. cinerea showed no effect o...
