STUDY OF INCIDENCE OF TWO MAJOR POST HARVEST DISEASES OF STRAWBERRY (FRAGARIA INDICA L.) IN MARATHWADA
*Sumia Fatima
Abstract The fruits of Strawberry (Fragaria indica L.) are highly perishable fruits due to their extreme tenderness, vulnerability to mechanical damage, high level of respiration and their susceptibility to fungal spoilage. It has noted that 53.4% strawberries were infected by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. fragariae. The percentage of infected strawberries due to growth of Rhizopus stolonifer was 34% respectively. This indicates that these two post harvest fungi such as Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. fragariae and Rhizopus stolonifer were economically important fungi causing major losses of strawberries in Marathwada region. Keywords: Strawberry (Fragaria indica L.), two major post harvest diseases. [Full Text Article] [Download Certificate] |
