| Carrots may have to be discarded during post harvest cold storage due to development of fungal infections, caused by, e.g., liquorice rot caused by Mycocentrospora acerina. Control of this disease is mainly based on cultural practice. We compared the susceptibility of carrots grown under conventional and organic agricultural practices. We have developed a bioassay for infection studies of M. acerina on carrots and observed that organic roots were more susceptible after one month storage than conventional ones but no differences were apparent after four or six months storage. Levels of three polyacetylenes (falcarinol, falcarindiol and falcarindiol-3-acetate) and the isocoumarin phytoalexin (6-methoxymellein) were analysed. No changes in individual and... |
