First recognition of Issatchenkia orientalis in mature citrus fruits in Spain.

Clementine cultivars Clemenules and Hernandina, mandarin cultivars Ortanique and Fortune, and orange cv. Navelina fruits stored in packinghouses in Valencia, Spain during January-April 2000 were affected by a soft, watery, colourless or very light brown decay. The incidence of decay was 5-12% in clementines and mandarins and 0.2-0.8% in oranges. The causal organism was identified as the yeast Issatchenkia orientalis (anamorph Candida krusei). In laboratory pathogenicity tests with oranges, clementines, mandarins, grapefruits and lemons stored at 24 deg C in a moist chamber, similar decay was observed on all fruits, but lemon fruits were most affected. This is the first report of decay in citrus caused by I. orientalis in Europe.
