Abstract


Gray mold caused by the fungus Botrytis cinerea is one of the most important and dangerous fungal diseases on strawberry Fragaria visca all over the world, whether it is grown in the open field or in greenhouses. This fungus significantly reduces crop yield up to 80-90% of flowers and fruits in the absence of appropriate control, in addition to the losses due to the decay of infected fruits during storage. The development of gray mold under natural infection in greenhouses at Lattakia was studied. The integrated management options for the disease were evaluated. Results that will limit the spread of this disease which is a real threat to the strawberry crop along the Syrian Coast will be reported.
