Implication

This assessment shows high aggressiveness and sporulation capacity of Penicillium digitatum in citrus, suggesting urgent postharvest management needs.

Key Points

P. digitatum isolates showed 100% pathogenicity, indicating significant threats to citrus crops.
Lesion area ranged from 40-80%, and sporulation capacity reached between 7.25×107 and 2.37×108 spores per isolate.
Analysis combined infection frequency, lesion area, and sporulation, revealing strong correlations with aggressiveness.
Cluster analysis categorized isolates by aggressiveness, highlighting genetic variability without geographic patterns.
