Type of article: Article

Summary

At all storage temperatures and periods tested conidia produced at -2 deg C caused a higher disease incidence and larger areas of rot than those produced at higher temperatures. Results are consistent with the packer's opinion that cross-infection of spring onions by long-term refrigerated onions in grading lines caused earlier and heavier rotting.
