- Pear fruit conservation for long periods is associated with postharvest fungal diseases. In Argentina, the most important and widespread diseases are caused by Penicillium spp. and Botrytis cinerea, followed by Alternaria sp. and Cladosporium sp. and Athelia epiphylla. The last one can be important depending on the fruit-lot. This study reports the presence of one Oomycete, as the cause of pear fruit rot in postharvest. In 2010, during the first months of conservation of ‘Williams’, ‘Packham’s Triumph’ and ‘Red Bartlet’ pears, in cold storage, in the eastern area of Alto Valle of Río Negro, fruit decay was recorded with losses between 5 and 20%, according to fruit-lot. Symptoms of decay were studied and its ethiology was determined using conventional and molecular methods. Fruit started showing circular, light to dark brown areas with irregular and diffuse margins that spread rapidly. The decayed area remained firm. The lesion diameter increased and it extended to pulp tissue to reach fruit core with a hyperbolic shape, different from the spherical shape caused by Penicillium spp. or Botrytis sp. The pathogen was isolated in V8 agar selective medium from pears with symptoms. By morphologic characteristics (colony and sporangia) of isolates, its association with clade 6 of Phytophthora was determined. The identification of isolates was confirmed by direct sequencing of the ITS rDNA region using DC6 and ITS4 primers. The nucleotide sequence showed 100% of similarity (745/745 pb) with sequences available in GenBank and was identified as an undescribed species inside P. gonapodyides- P. megasperma Clade 6. This is the first report of a new Phytophthora in postharvest pears.

Este último puede ser importante dependiendo del lote de fruta. Este estudio reporta la presencia de un Oomiceto, como causante de la pudrición del fruto de pera en poscosecha. En 2010, durante los primeros meses de conservación de peras 'Williams', 'Packham's Triumph' y 'Red Bartlet', en cámaras frigoríficas, en la zona oriental del Alto Valle de Río Negro, se registró pudrición de frutos con pérdidas entre 5 y 20 %, según lote de fruto. Se estudiaron los síntomas de la descomposición y se determinó su etiología mediante métodos convencionales y moleculares. Los frutos comenzaron a mostrar áreas circulares, de color marrón claro a oscuro, con márgenes irregulares y difusos que se extendieron rápidamente. La zona deteriorada se mantuvo firme. El diámetro de la lesión aumentó y se extendió al tejido pulpar hasta llegar al corazón del fruto con forma hiperbólica, diferente a la forma esférica causada por Penicillium spp. o Botrytis sp. El patógeno se aisló en medio selectivo agar V8 de peras con síntomas. Por características morfológicas (colonia y esporangios) de los aislados se determinó su asociación con el clado 6 de Phytophthora . La identificación de los aislados se confirmó mediante secuenciación directa de la región ITS rDNA utilizando cebadores DC6 e ITS4. La secuencia de nucleótidos mostró 100% de similitud (745/745 pb) con secuencias disponibles en GenBank y fue identificada como una especie no descrita dentro de P. gonapodyides - P. megasperma Clado 6. Este es el primer reporte de una nueva Phytophthora en peras poscosecha.
