A study was conducted from November 1998 to February 1999 at the Institute of Food and Science Technology at Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. The study aimed to 1) isolate the fungi that cause spoilage in guayabano, 2) identify the fungi associated with the spoilage, and 3) characterize the symptoms of spoilage due to fungi
Three genera were identified to cause spoilage of guayabano fruits namely:
Penicilliana sp., Aspergillus sp., and Fusarium sp. Series of isolation, cultural and morphological examination was done to isolate fungal causing spoilage.
Results also showed that types of spoilage causing molds did not differ in the guayabano varieties.
Prenominal fungal spoilage resulted in blackening of appearance, formation of brownish irregular spots and softening of the fruit and foul odor.
