Abstract
Control of citrus blue mold, caused by Penicillium italicum, was evaluated on artificially inoculated oranges immersed in water at up to 75°C for 150 s; in 2 to 4% sodium carbonate (wt/vol... Postharvest green mold, caused by Penicillium digitatum, and postharvest blue mold, caused by P. italicum, are among the most economically important postharvest diseases of citrus worldwide.
