Identification, Characterization, Pathogenicity, and Fungicide Sensitivity of Postharvest Fungal Diseases in Culinary Melon from Northern Thailand

mycolabadmin

Researchers in Thailand identified four different fungi causing diseases in culinary melons after harvest. They found that three fungus species cause damage to stored melon fruits, significantly reducing their quality and value. By testing various fungicides, they determined which chemical treatments effectively stop each fungus type, helping farmers protect their crops and reduce losses.

Researchers from Chile identified native bacteria (specifically Pseudomonas strains) that effectively prevent a destructive fungal disease affecting grapevines. These bacteria can work across a wide range of temperatures and significantly reduce fungal growth both in laboratory tests and in actual vineyard conditions. This discovery offers an environmentally friendly alternative to chemical fungicides for protecting grapevines, particularly important as younger vines appear more vulnerable to infection.
