Preface
Our intention with this book is to provide a comprehensive resource of information
about the biology and control of postharvest diseases of many fresh horticultural
products. For this reason, sources cited include appropriate literature of any age,
rather than only the most recent. The information in this book covers a wide range
of topics related to postharvest pathology of fresh fruits and vegetables. The book
is structured in three different sections. In Section I—Postharvest Diseases of
Fresh Horticultural Produce—the most important microbial pathogens causing post-
harvest decay, the symptoms they cause (including color plates), their economic
importance, the epidemiology and significant preharvest and postharvest aspects
affecting disease incidence, and conventional methods for commercial control are
described for citrus fruits, pome fruits, stone fruits, table grapes, kiwifruit, straw-
berries, pomegranates, persimmons, loquats, avocados, papayas, bananas, Solana-
ceae and Cucurbitaceae crops, and leafy vegetables. In Section II—General Aspects
of Infection Causing Postharvest Disease—chapters are devoted to the molecular
insights in the pathogenicity of necrotrophic fungi, mechanisms of fungal quies-
cence, and detection and control of mycotoxins. In Section III—Novel Technologies
to Control Postharvest Decay of Fruits and Vegetables—the most relevant methods
for postharvest disease control alternative to conventional chemical fungicides are
discussed. These include biological control with antagonistic microorganisms, heat
treatments, UV-C light, low-toxicity acids and salts, plant-derived compounds includ-
ing extracts and essential oils, antifungal edible coatings with especial reference to
chitosan and Aloe spp. gels, antimicrobial peptides and proteins, and elicitors for
induced host resistance.
We hope to appeal to both research and commercial audiences. Graduate and
undergraduate students with interest in postharvest sciences should also find this
book of value. The best managed postharvest programs address research into the
biology and control of the significant diseases, but also include other aspects, such
as employing major cultivars in their work, an understanding of many aspects of
