Notes

This fungus is common, causing storage rot of fruit and tubers. Cunningham (1925a) noted that in Central Otago it has proved to be a serious ripe rot of apricots, peaches, and nectarines, attacking fruits on trees through puncture wounds of insects. It is responsible for leak in ripe strawberry fruits. It is a common storage rot of kumara (lpomoea batatas) tubers. Care should be taken in harvesting fruit and tubers for, in storage, any small skin injury quickly becomes infected with this fungus and no fungicide appears to give adequate protection.
