Other claims from this paper (14)
- Observation Black rot occurred only on mature fruit.
- Intervention effect Inoculated 10-day-old cantaloupe fruit had the greatest decay relative to older fruit.
- Association Lesion size did not differ among 20-, 30-, 40- and 50-day-old fruit.
- Association Lesion size varied among fungal isolates.
- Association All five isolates had greatest PG activity in inoculated 10-day-old fruit.
- Association Lesion size and total fungal PG activity were positively correlated.
- Observation Eleven PG isozymes were detected in fungal shake culture.
- Observation Twelve PG isozymes were detected in decayed 10-day-old fruit.
- Observation Thirteen PG isozymes were detected in decayed 50-day-old fruit.
- Observation In vitro fungal PG activity was optimum at pH 5.0.
- Observation In vivo fungal PG activity was optimum at pH 5.5.
- Observation In vitro PG primarily had an endo mode of action.
- Observation PG from decayed tissue was predominantly exo-PG.
- Mechanism PG may contribute to D. bryoniae pathogenesis during cantaloupe decay.
