Fruit Stem-End Rot

Abstract: After harvest, the fruit ripens and stem-end rot (SER) starts to develop, leading to significant fruit losses. SER is caused by diverse pathogenic fungi that endophytically colonize the stem during fruit development in the orchard or field and remain quiescent until the onset of fruit ripening. During the endophytic-like stage, the pathogenic fungus colonizes the phloem and xylem of the fruit stem-end; after fruit ripening, the fungus converts to a necrotrophic lifestyle, while colonizing the fruit parenchyma,… Show more

“…Citrus fruit is a major economic crop with a diverse range of species and varieties, including oranges, mandarins, tangerines, pummelos, lemons, citrons, kumquats, limes, and different hybrids [1,2]. Postharvest storage and shelf life of citrus fruit are limited due to the attack of several pathogens such as Penicillium spp., Geotrichum citri-aurantii, Alternaria alternata, and Diaporthe citri being the prevalent postharvest pathogenic fungi in citrus fruit [3][4][5][6]. Among these pathogens, P. digitatum, the causal agent of green mold, is considered one of the most threatening postharvest diseases in citrus fruit.…”

“…Fludioxonil has been recently demonstrated to be more effective than prochloraz in controlling Lasiodiplodia in mango fruit [11]. Lasiodiplodia is the main fungi responsible for SER disease and the main concern of postharvest decay in avocado fruit [13,14]. Therefore, conidia of L. theobromae were drop-inoculated on the stem-end of ripe Pinkerton avocado fruit.…”

“…In Israel, the early season avocado cultivars (as Ettinger) suffer mostly from SER while the late season cultivars (as Reed) suffer from both anthracnose and SER, but mainly from anthracnose [14]. To evaluate the effect of both fungicides against the natural rots, "Ettinger" and "Reed" avocado cultivars were treated with prochloraz or fludioxonil, followed by CS and SL storage, without any fungal inoculation.…”
