TLDR
In this paper, the authors evaluated the antifungal activity of essential oil (EO) from Ammodaucus leucotrichus fruits against three phytopathogenic fungi causing the deterioration for apples, including Botrytis cinerea, Penicillium expansum and Rhizopus stolonifer.
Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the antifungal activity of essential oil (EO) from Ammodaucus leucotrichus fruits against three phytopathogenic fungi causing the deterioration for apples, including Botrytis cinerea, Penicillium expansum and Rhizopus stolonifer by using the poisoned food (PF) and the volatile activity (VA) methods. The antifungal test results indicated that the EO displayed significant potential of antifungal activity against the tested phytopathogenic fungi (p

THE CHEMICAL CONTROL OF POSTHARVEST DISEASES: Deciduous Fruits, Berries, Vegetables and Root/Tuber Crops

TL;DR: International agencies that monitor world food resources have acknowledged that one of the options most feasible for meeting future food needs is the reduction of postharvest losses, and fresh fruits, vegetables, roots, and tubers are quite perishable because their high moisture content makes them vulnerable to microbial decay as well as to physiological deterioration.
