Résumé

Nitrous oxide (N2O) was tested for its potential to control the postharvest decay of fruits. Both climacteric and non-climacteric fruits were inoculated with high and low N2O-sensitive groups of fungi. Results showed that regardless of the physiological nature of the fruits or group of fungi, N2O delayed the appearance of disease and reduced the lesion growth rate. This response to N2O was dose and time dependent. This suppression of decay by N2O treatment is thought to be a direct inhibitory effect on fungal growth rate and/or increased resistance of host tissue.
