Efficacy of Allium sativum extract as post-harvest treatment of fruit rot of mango
Fruit rot caused by Lasiodiplodia species is among the most significant post-harvest fungal disease of mango fruit. The use of chemical synthetic fungicides to control plant diseases can contaminate the environment and affect human health. An alternative method to circumvent these problems is to use...
