Title

Fumiomi Takeda; Wojciech Janisiewicz HortScience 1990. doi:10.21273/hortsci.25.6.625a
Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Field application of Pseudomonas cepacia had variable control of Botrytis fruit rot in strawberry.
- Intervention effect Pyrrolnitrin was as effective as Benlate/captan sprays in field applications.
- Intervention effect A pyrrolnitrin dip plus cold storage extended fruit shelf life another five days.
- Intervention effect Preharvest pyrrolnitrin sprays delayed rot in Bristol black raspberry by 4 to 5 days.
- Intervention effect Captan treatment provided no rot protection.
- Observation Fruit-isolated Botrytis cinerea was resistant to captan in vitro.
- Recommendation Authors suggest naturally produced compounds could reduce postharvest rots without synthetic fungicides.
