Abstract

During the postharvest period, citrus fruits can be affected by phytopathogens such as Penicillium digitatum , which causes green mold disease and is responsible for up to 90% of total citrus losses. Chemical fungicides are widely used to prevent green mold disease, leading to concerns about environmental and health risks.
