Electrolyzed oxidizing water is an eco-friendly emerging technology considered as a novel broad-spectrum sanitizer. The efficacy of electrolyzed against Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Fusarium oxysporum, and Penicillium italicum at different concentrations free chlorine (0.5, 1, 6, 12, 30 ppm) was evaluated. results showed that ppm the mycelial growth, sporulation germination process were total...

In this paper, the main problem and countermeasure of fruit production quality and safety were studied in Yanshan Mountain. The subjective factor was fruit farmer quality and safety consciousness faint, and the objective factors were: severe orchard environmental pollution, faint fruit postharvest handling, lag in process technology, fruit quality determination and market inspection system is n...

Calcium is thought to be the most important mineral element determining fruit quality. It seems to be especially important in apples where it has been shown to reduce metabolic disorders. Calcium in adequate amounts helps to maintain apple fruit firmness and decreases the incidence of physiological disorders such as water core, bitter pit and internal breakdown. Postharvest decay may also be re...

In March 2014, a kohlrabi stem rot sample was collected from the cold storage room of Daegwallyong Horticultural Cooperative, Korea. White and fuzzy mycelial growth was observed on the stem, symptomatic of stem rot disease. The pathogen was isolated from the infected stem and cultured on potato dextrose agar for further fungal morphological observation and to confirm its pathogenicity, accordin...

Substantial yield losses have been reported during the storage of Allium cepa L., and effective methods to minimize postharvest are currently lacking. Therefore objectives this study were investigate impact pre-treatment with Trichoderma asperellum virens on post-harvest evaluate factors associated these losses. The behaviors L. bulbs after different field treatments spp. examined using a compl...

Colletotrichum, a genus of Ascomycota fungi with diversity species grouped into several complexes, or clades, is associated diseases known as "Anthracnose". It affects significantly different tropical and subtropical fruit species. Infections occur in the field postharvest; quiescent stages are mainly responsible for postharvest losses. An analysis this pre-infective stage made based on consult...

The characterisation of the causal agents postharvest diseases, as well their pathogenicity in different mango cultivars economic importance Mexico was evaluated. In total, 37 fungi were isolated from diseased (Mangifera indica L.) cvs Ataulfo, Hayden, Manila, Peach, Haden and creole. For morphological characterization, isolates seeded potato dextrose agar media described by 4 variables. molecu...

Chitosan, a given name to a deacetylated form of chitin, is a natural biodegradable compound derived from crustaceous shells such as crabs and shrimps, whose main attributes corresponds to its polycationic nature. Chitosan has been proven to control numerous pre and postharvest diseases on various horticultural commodities. It has been reported that both soil and foliar plant pathogens fungal, ...
