Implication

This research evaluates essential oils' effects on postharvest disease control in strawberries, indicating their potential as alternatives to chemicals.

Key Points

Essential oils from C. citratus and C. winterianus effectively control anthracnose and gray mold, enhancing strawberry quality.
At a concentration of 0.05% v/v, C. citratus completely eliminated growth of Botrytis cinerea and Colletotrichum acutatum.
In vitro assays used varying essential oil concentrations to measure fungal growth reduction over a 14-day period.
Findings suggest essential oils may offer eco-friendly alternatives for postharvest disease management in strawberries.
