Fumigation of sweet cherries with thymol and acetic acid to reduce postharvest brown rot and blue mold rot

Abstract: Fumigation of sweet cherries with low levels of thymol and acetic acid to reduce postharvest brown rot and blue mold rot.Abstract -Introduction. Sweet cherries are susceptible to postharvest decay. The use of synthetic fungicides is discouraged in postharvest handling because they can leave a residue and present a safety risk. Therefore, naturally occurring compounds have been considered as an alternative. Fumigation of short-chain organic acids and essential oils has shown promise in controlling fungal activi… Show more

“…Thymol is an essential oil component from T. vulgaris and T. serpyllum and has been used as medicinal drug, food preservative, and beverage ingredient (Jain 1985;Mansour et al 1986). Fumigation of soil pathogens with thymol was effective in controlling postharvest grey mold rot caused by B. cinerea (Chu et al 1999), and brown rot caused by M. fructicola (Chu et al 2001).…”

“…In particular, the fumigation of sweet cherries with thymol vapour demonstrated an effective control of grey mould rot (B. cinerea) (Chu et al, 1999), brown rot (M. fructicola) (Chu et al, 2001) and anthracnose (C. gloeosporiodes) in avocados as shown in Fig. 2 (Sellamuthu et al, 2013a).…”

“…Eugenol från kryddnejlikor och basilika är den mest aktiva komponenten mot svampangrepp (B. cinerea och M. fructigena) hos äpple (Amiri et el., 2008). Växtoljor och flyktiga ämnen, från pepparmynta, lavendel och sojabönor har också visat sig ha en hämmande effekt på B. cinerea (Chu et al, 1999), M. fructicola, i körsbär (Chu et al, 2001) och i aprikos (Liu and Chu, 2002 …”
