Moreover, with consumers increasingly demanding minimally processed vegetables and fruits--which can be invaded by human pathogens--there is an imperative need for suitable protective measures to provide pathogen-free commodities that are free from, or contain only acceptable levels of, chemical residues.Providing details of both conventional and modern molecular techniques applicable 606 $aFruit$xPostharvest diseases and injuries 606 $aVegetables$xPostharvest diseases and injuries 606 $aPhytopathogenic microorganisms 615 0$aFruit$xPostharvest diseases and injuries. 615 0$aVegetables$xPostharvest diseases and injuries. 615 0$aPhytopathogenic microorganisms. 676 $a632 676 $a634/.0468 700 $aNarayanasamy$b P.$f1937-$01618450 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910830257603321 996 $aPostharvest pathogens and disease management$94119710 997 $aUNINA
