The ability of salicylic acid and jasmonic acid to suppress post-harvest infection with green mould Penicillium digitatum and blue mould P. italicum on three citrus species Citrus reticulata 'Kinnow', C. limon 'Meyer Lemon', and C. limetta 'Mosambi' was evaluated in a dose-response study. Salicylic acid (SA) and jasmonic acid (JA) were applied to the fruits as a post-harvest dip treatment followed by wound inoculation with the pathogens. Both resistance inducers caused a significantly lower disease severity compared with the infected but non-treated control, whereas disease incidence was not significantly lower than in the control. The efficacy of both SA and JA in reducing disease severity was concentration-dependent; the use of higher concentrations resulted in a greater degree of suppression. All the Citrus species tested in this study showed different responses in terms of disease development. C. limon 'Meyer Lemon' showed the highest disease development, and C. limetta 'Mosambi' the lowest. To get an insight into the mechanisms underlying the increase in resistance, the activity of defence-related enzymes -peroxidase (POD) and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) -was recorded in SA-and JA-treated fruit peelings. The activity of both enzymes was directly proportional to the concentration of the SA and JA applications. The highest activity of PPO and POD was observed in C. reticulata 'Kinnow' and the lowest in C. limon 'Meyer Lemon' fruits. This study is the first to document an increase in the activity of PPO and POD in SA-and JA-treated Citrus species in the presence of blue mould and green mould pathogens.Ke y wo r d s: enzymes, Penicillium digitatum, P. italicum, post-harvest, resistance inducers Abbreviations: BM − blue mould, GM − green mould, JA − jasmonic acid, POD − peroxidase, PPO − polyphenol oxidase, RH -relative humidity, SA − salicylic acid

“…However, the indiscriminate and excessive use of synthetic fungicides has been a prime cause for the development of resistant fungal pathogen populations, resulting in the use of even greater quantities of antifungal compounds in agriculture and the appearance of increased levels of toxic residues in food products ( da Cruz Cabral et al, 2013 ). Alternative control methods are therefore urgently needed ( Sukorini et al, 2013 ). Plant essential oils (EOs) and extracts have been used for thousands of years in food preservation, pharmaceuticals, alternative medicine and natural therapies ( Prabuseenivasan et al, 2006 ).…”

This study investigated the anti-fungal properties of Solidago canadensis L. essential oil (SCLEO) against Botrytis cinerea in vitro, and its ability to control gray mold and maintain quality in strawberry fruits. SCLEO exhibited dose-dependent antifungal activity against B. cinerea and profoundly altered mycelial morphology, cellular ultrastructure, and membrane permeability as evaluated by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and fluorescence microscopy. SCLEO vapor at 0.1 mL/L maintained higher sensory acceptance and reduced decay of fresh strawberry fruit, and also reduced gray mold in artificially inoculated fruit. SCLEO treatment did not, however, stimulate phenylalanin ammonia-lyase, polyphenol oxidase, or chitinase, enzymes related to disease resistance. This suggests that SCLEO reduces gray mold by direct inhibition of pathogen growth. SCLEO vapor may provide a new and effective strategy for controlling postharvest disease and maintaining quality in strawberries.

“…Segundo Plaza et al (2003), o P. digitatum é capaz de germinar e crescer na faixa de 4 a 30 °C. A temperatura ideal de desenvolvimento é 25 °C e com um ciclo de vida curto, de 3 a 5 dias (Sukorini et al, 2013). Durante a refrigeração houve o desenvolvimento do P. italicum.…”
