Abstract
Summer applications of calcium chloride at 1.2, 3.6, and 6.0 g actual calcium per liter of water resulted in reduced lesion areas in wounded Bosc pears inoculated postharvest with Phialophora malorum, as compared to untreated inoculated fruit.
There was a significant interaction between rate of calcium applied and the concentration of spores with which wounds were challenged.
