Characterization of the Mechanism of Action of Mar61-01 against in Strawberries.

Several bacterial strains belonging to spp. possess biocontrol capability, both against phytopathogens and human pathogenic species, thanks to the production of secondary metabolites, including as a red-pink, non-diffusible pigment, 2-methyl-3-pentyl-6-methoxyprodiginine (prodigiosin). is the causal agent of gray mold, which is an economically relevant disease of many crops worldwide.

Preharvest and Postharvest Application of Garlic and Rosemary Essential Oils for Controlling Anthracnose and Quality Assessment of Strawberry Fruit During Cold Storage.

This study assessed the feasibility of using essential oils (EOs) against inciting strawberry anthracnose. Two EOs, extracted from (garlic) and (rosemary), were selected because their fungicide efficacy was already well characterized under laboratory and greenhouse conditions. We characterized both EOs in terms of efficacy and impact on qualitative traits and sensory quality of strawberry fruit.

Weeds as Potential Inoculum Reservoir for Causing Strawberry Anthracnose in Iran and Rep-PCR Fingerprinting as Useful Marker to Differentiate Complex on Strawberry.

Strawberry anthracnose caused by spp. is considered one of the most serious and destructive disease of strawberry worldwide. Weeds, as possible hosts of the pathogen, could have a role as potential inoculum reservoir.
