Management of Aspergillus and Blue Mould Rot of Anola Fruits
Subscribe/Renew Journal
Aonla, having English name Indian gooseberry (Emblica officinalis Gaertn) is an important fruit of future due to its high medicinal and nutritional value, which is grown in arid and semi-arid regions. Aspergillus rot (Aspergillus niger) and blue mould (Penicillium isalandicum) are major postharvest diseases in which decaying of fruits ranged from 10-18 per cent during the study period. Three years pooled data results revealed that maxinum fruit rots were controlled with Azadirachta indica leaf exract (5%) followed by carbendazim (0.1%), Curcuma longa rhizome extract (5%) in both pre- and post- inoculation treatment.
