Biocontrol of phytopathogen fungi in citrus fruit
The citrus production is one of the agricultural activities with most relevance in the world. Mexico occupies the fourth slot in the world on a level of production and Tamaulipas is amongst the states with more crops in the country. On the other hand, citrus fruits hold a great variety of diseases....

Biocontrol hongos fitopatógenos cítricos antagonistas. The citrus production is one of the agricultural activities with most relevance in the world. Mexico occupies the fourth slot in the world on a level of production and Tamaulipas is amongst the states with more crops in the country. On the other hand, citrus fruits hold a great variety of diseases. In developed countries the losses to these diseases are from 5 to 20 percent of the crops and in developing countries almost a 50 percent and in the majority of these the losses are due to a fungi named phytopathogen. The main strategies used in the control of these diseases have been synthetic fungicides, nevertheless the use of these fungicides can affect nature and the human health. Biological control has been the most viable strategy in the combat of these diseases caused by phytopathogen. This strategy is based in the use of antagonist microorganisms that do their job through different mechanisms.

La citricultura es una de las actividades agrícolas de mayor relevancia en el mundo. México ocupa el cuarto lugar a nivel mundial en cuanto a producción y entre los estados con mayores cosechas se encuentra Tamaulipas. Por otra parte, los cítricos albergan una cantidad considerable de enfermedades. En frutos en poscosecha, las pérdidas por enfermedades pueden ser del 5 al 20% en países desarrollados y hasta del 50% en países en desarrollo, y la mayoría de éstas se deben a enfermedades causadas por hongos fitopatógenos. Las principales estrategias utilizadas para el control de las enfermedades de los cítricos han sido con fungicidas sintéticos; sin embargo, deben reducirse por el riesgo que representan sus residuos, ya que pueden resultar tóxicos, tanto para el ambiente como para la salud humana. El control biológico es una estrategia viable para el combate de enfermedades causadas por fitopatógenos. Se basa en la utilización de microorganismos antagonistas que ejercen su acción de biocontrol por diferentes mecanismos. El propósito de este trabajo es dar a conocer los estudios realizados en el biocontrol de enfermedades causados por hongos fitopatógenos.
