Title: Latent Infection of Pathogenic Fungi on Mango Fruits from Yunnan Province
Abstract: The occurrence of latent infection of pathogenic fungi on mango(Mangifera indica L.) fruits without any disease symptoms from 5 regions of Yunnan Province was studied.The results showed that the latent infection of fungi was commonly found in the healthy mango fruits,and there existed significantly difference in the latent infection of fungi between Yuanjiang and Simao.The rate of latent infection fungi was the highest on the fruit stem end among the isolated sites,followed by the petiole.Six pathogenic fungi were identified to be Botryodiplodia theobromae Pat.,Colletotrichum gloeosporioides Penz.,Phomposis mangiferae Ahmad.,C.acutatum Simmonds,Pestalotiopsis mangiferae(P.Henning) Sutton.and Aspergillus sp.The rate of B.theobromae reached 40.28% being the highest among the 6 latent infection fungi,followed by C.gloeosporioides,Phomposis mangiferae and C.acutatum.The rates of Pestalotiopsis mangiferae and Aspergillus sp.were lower than the other latent infection fungi.
