Inhibitors of Deuterophoma tracheiphila in Citrus Varieties Resistant to "Mal Secco".
Growth of colonies of the fungus Deuterophoma tracheiphila, the causal agent of the "mal secco" disease of lemons, is inhibited by two substances, C(1) and CS(2), which are found in resistant mandarin varieties but not in susceptible lemons and related species. Some properties of these substances are reported. CS(2) may be naringenin, but the stronger inhibitor, C(1), has not yet been identified.
