Mango Endophyte and Epiphyte Microbiome Composition during Fruit Development and Post-Harvest Stages
The influence of the development stage and post-harvest handling on the microbial composition of mango fruit plays a central role in fruit health. Hence, the composition of fungal and bacterial microbiota on the anthoplane, fructoplane, stems and stem-end pulp of mango during fruit development and p...
