Field validation of biocontrol strategies to control brown rot on stone fruit in several European countries
2021
Brown rot caused by Monilinia spp. is the most significant disease of stone fruit. New approaches to fruit production have necessitated the development of control strategies that are more eco- and consumer-friendly. An efficient field strategy to control brown rot was previously designed based on the application of two biocontrol agents (BCAs), Bacillus amyloliquefaciens CPA-8 (CPA-8) or Penicillium frequentans 909 (Pf909), with calendar-based treatment. In the present study, the strategy was validated on different stone fruit hosts in four producing countries over two seasons.
