Abstract
The citrus (Citrus aurantifolia Swingle.) is an important arid fruit crop.
The fruit rot caused by Aspergillus niger Tieghem, adversely affects the fruit
quality and ultimately reduces the market value. As the Aspergillus fruit rot of
citrus causes enormous yield losses and frequently observed in orchards and
markets, the detail investigation on various aspects was carried out at
Department of Plant Pathology, B. A. College of Agriculture, Anand
Agricultural University, Anand. Freshly infected citrus fruits (Kagzi Lime)
exhibiting typical Aspergillus rot symptoms were collected from Horticulture
Farm, Anand Agricultural University, Anand
