Tema(s): Recursos en línea: Resumen: The aim of this study was to evaluate the fungicidal effect of the thyme and Mexican lime essential oils studies against Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and Rhizopus stolonifer, and to determine the possibility of incorporating them in edible coatings to control postharvest diseases of papaya fruits. For in vitro studies, both essential oils were tested to evaluate their effect on mycelial growth of C. gloeosporioides and R. stolonifer during given incubation times. For in vivo tests, fruit were dipped in the thyme and Mexican lime essential oils before and after inoculation. Non-inoculated fruits were similarly treated. A further experiment was carried out by dipping papayas in a coating formulated with both essential oils. Results indicated that the fungicidal effect was more evident with essential thyme than with Mexican lime oil. For the essential thyme oil, concentrations up to 0.060
