Biological control of avocado postharvest diseases.

Bacillus subtilis was evaluated under commercial packinghouse conditions for the control of postharvest fruit diseases of naturally infected avocado fruits (cultivar Hass). B. subtilis applied in commercial Tag wax at various concn as well as in a water dip, significantly reduced anthracnose, Dothiorella/Colletotrichum fruit rot complex and stem-end rot. The antagonist water dip treatment was also equally or more effective than a prochloraz water dip in controlling the postharvest diseases.
