| Popis: | Several essential oil components were studied in order to determine their fungistatic and fungicidal activity against fruit and vegetable postharvest pathogens. In vitro trials were carried out to study their inhibition activity on fungal spore germination and mycelium growth. The study deals with several monoterpenes, whether hydrocarbons or oxygenated with different functional groups (phenols, aldehydes, ketones, ethers, epoxides). The essential oil components studied included (E)-anethole, p-anisaldehyde, carvacrol, (−)-carvone, 1,8-cineole, (+)-limonene, myrcene, (±)-α-phellandrene and (±)-α-pinene. The inhibition activity of these components was examined against some of the most widespread fruit and vegetable postharvest pathogens, including Botrytis cinerea Pers., Monilinia laxa (Aderh. et Ruhl.) Honey, Mucor piriformis Fischer, Penicillium digitatum (Pers.) Sacc., Penicillium italicum Wehm., Penicillium expansum Lk. and Rhizopus stolonifer (Eheremb.) Land. Best results were obtained with c... |
