Abstract

Castanea henryi is susceptible to spoilage during storage, primarily due to pathogenic infection. In this study, the main cultivated variety C. henryi 'Youzhen' in northern Fujian were used as experimental material. Pathogenic fungi were isolated and purified from decayed kernel tissues, followed by identification based on morphological and molecular biological methods. A phylogenetic tree was constructed to clarify the taxonomic status of the isolated strains. The results showed that the pathogens responsible for C. henryi spoilage included Gd21Ⅱ, Dd13, Dc21, Ga11, Gd21Ⅰ, Bc21, Gd12Ⅱ, Fd12Ⅱ, Ad11, Fd12Ⅰ,Fd13, Dd11, and Gb23, which were respectively classified as Penicillium mallochii, Cladosporium sp., Botryosphaeria dothidea, Debaryomyces robertsiae, Candida sp., Diaporthe sp., and Pseudomonas oryzihabitans. Through the isolation and identification of major pathogenic fungi during storage, this study clarifies the species and phylogenetic classification of the spoilage-causing microorganisms, providing a theoretical basis for the development of postharvest storage and preservation techniques for C. henryi. It also provides a theoretical basis for the development of new preservation technologies for C. henryi.
