Storage Diseases of Carrots and Management

Abstract

As conclusions of the worldwide studies a lot of detrimental organisms pest and fungal diseases that are seen pre- harvest and post-harvest, period on carrots, are described and methods are suggested for control and prevention of diseases. Carrots are stored for a long time after harvest and fungal agents cause considerable losses due to improper storage conditions in carrot stores. These agents and diseases caused by their; Gray Mold (Botrytis cinerea), Black Root Rot Carrots (Chalara elegans), Blue-Green Mold (Penicillium spp.), Crater Rot (Rhizoctonia carotae), Licorice Rot (Mycocentrospora acerina), Rhizopus Wooly Soft Rot (Rhizopus arrhizus, R. stolonife), Sooty Rot (Aspergillus niger), Sour Rot (Geotrichum candidum), Yeasty Rot (Candida spp.), White Rot (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum), Fusarium Dry Rot (Fusarium spp.), Black Rot (Alternaria radicina), and Bacterial Soft Rot (Pectobacterium caratovora subs. Caratovora). In this article, storage diseases of carrots and the proposed control methods against these diseases have been compiled.

Havuçlarda Görülen Depo Hastalıkları ve Yönetimi

Öz

Havuç ile ilgili yapılan çalışmalarda, havuçlarda hasat öncesi ve sonrası dönemde oluşan çok sayıda fungal hastalıklar ile ilgili sorunlar ortaya konulmuş ve bunlardan bazılarına ilişkin mücadele önerileri verilmiştir. Havuçlar hasat edildikten sonra uzun süre muhafaza edilmekte, uygun olmayan depolama koşullarında patojenler nedeni ile önemli kayıplar oluşmaktadır. Bu patojenler ve oluşturdukları hastalıklar: Kurşuni Küf (Botrytis cinerea), Siyah Kök Çürüklüğü (Chalara elegans), Mavi-Yeşil Küf (Penicillium spp.), Krater Çürüklüğü (Rhizoctonia carotae), Meyan Çürüklüğü (Mycocentrospora acerina), Rhizopus Yumuşak Çürüklüğü (Rhizopus arrhizus = R. oryzae, R.stolonifer), İsli Çürüklük (Aspergillus niger), Acı Çürüklük (Geotrichum candida ), Maya Çürüklüğü (Candida spp.), Beyaz Çürüklük (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum), Fusarium Kuru Çürüklüğü (Fusarium spp.), Siyah Çürüklük (Alternaria radicina) ve Bakteriyel Yumuşak Çürüklük (Pectobacterium caratovora subs. caratovora)’tür. Bu makalede, havuçlarda görülen depo hastalıkları ve bu hastalıklara karşı önerilen savaşım yöntemleri derlenmiştir.
