| Abstract | Fruit rot disease of rambutan caused by Lasiodiplodia theobromae,Gliocephalotrichum spp., Colletotrichum gleosporioides, Pestalotiopsis sp. and Phomopsis sp. is the major problem of rambutan which reduces both its quality and shelf life. The pathogens persist in soil and plant residues in orchard. Conidia of fungi are spreaded by wind and rain. Symptoms of fruit rot disease appear as dark brown lesions on the rind of fruit, after that the lesions enlarged and turned dark brown in colour. Greyish brown or white yellowish mycelia were observed on infection depending on type of fungi. Lightbrown, water-soaked areas developed initially in the pulp which enlarged later. Completedeterioration of fruits occurred after 3-5 days at room temperature. These are manymethods to control fruit rot disease of rambutan such as biological, generally safecompounds, low temperature, ozone and chitosan for reducing disease severity andextending shelf life. |
