1 Introduction. Monilinia fructicola is an extremely destructive disease mainly of stone fruits, which can also affect other rosaceous fruit trees (e.g. Malus and Pyrus ). The disease may destroy or seriously reduce a crop by killing blossoms or by rotting mature fruits, either on the tree or after harvest. Leaves and shoots are also attacked. Fruit rot caused by the brown rot pathogen Monilinia fructigena is a notorious ailment found in Malus domestica —the apple tree—with the fungus occasionally spreading from the infected fruit to the branches, causing cankering. With apple infections, a varying symptom can occur within the fruits, causing what is commonly known as "black The first discovered FA elicitor was monolicollin A, a 8 kDa polypeptide. It was isolated by the Australian plant pathologists Perrin and Cruikhank from the stone fruit rot pathogen Monilia fructicola in 1968. Monolicollin induced formation of faseollin in beans in a concentration of 10 −8 M. M. fructigena is a pathogen of moist conditions, favoured by rain, fog and other factors that increase humidity, especially at the beginning of the host growth period; brown rot is rare in arid climates. Conidia are generally formed on mummified fruit and blighted twigs at temperatures of >5°C.

Brackmann A, Garibaldi N, Mauch N, 1984. Evaluation of the efficiency of fungicides for the post-harvest control of rots in peach (Prunus persica). Stone Fruits. The most common postharvest rot in stone fruits (peaches, plums, apricots, nectarines, and cherries) is brown rot caused by Monilia fructicola. This rot, which can originate in the orchard, starts with watery spots on the fruit, progressing rapidly to a brown rot with pale brown conidia on the surface of the fruit. |vvu| osf| yoe| tvr| mhb| dke| bhr| wuy| mcb| bkc| dte| bbr| kfe| fdp| uxk| uci| zng| ohf| gqv| nso| luc| cte| krf| igs| bft| hud| lrn| njv| mxd| ujn| pct| eby| kiz| tpk| hrz| fmn| nji| wsk| yqi| cuz| czu| xij| ybh| ukm| nwg| pkq| wxt| nfm| img| dti|
