Abstract

Kiwifruit is known for its rich content of nutrients and significant economic value. Global cultivation of kiwifruit has been increasing along with the amount of land being dedicated to its production. Regrettably, postharvest fungal decays, such as those caused by Botrytis cinerea, Penicillium expansum, Alternaria alternata, Botryosphaeria dothidea, Nigrospora oryzae, and others, pose a significant challenge to the kiwifruit industry, and are responsible for substantial losses during storage, transportation, and local marketing. Biological control of postharvest diseases is seen as a safe and sustainable strategy and as a result has received considerable interest for its potential in disease management. The present review provides an overview of the research conducted on the major postharvest diseases of kiwifruit and the use of biocontrol agents to manage these diseases. It also reviews the status of microbial formulations and the impact of environmental factors on biocontrol efficacy. The need for further research on the utilization of microbial consortia to manage postharvest diseases of kiwifruit is discussed as a major new approach to biological control.

猕猴桃采后真菌腐烂的生态友好型生物防治策略研究进展

猕猴桃以其丰富的营养成分和显著的经济价值而闻名。猕猴桃的全球种植一直在增加，用于生产猕猴桃的土地数量也在增加。令人遗憾的是，采后真菌腐烂，如由灰葡萄孢菌、扩张青霉菌、交替葡萄孢菌、黑孢菌、米黑孢菌等引起的真菌腐烂，对猕猴桃产业构成了重大挑战，并在储存、运输和当地销售过程中造成了重大损失。生物防治采后疾病被视为一种安全和可持续的战略，因此因其在疾病管理方面的潜力而受到相当大的关注。本文综述了猕猴桃采后主要病害的研究进展及生物防治药剂的应用。综述了微生物制剂的研究现状及环境因素对生物防治效果的影响。讨论了利用微生物群落治理猕猴桃采后病害作为一种重要的生物防治新途径的必要性。
