Abstract

Conidiation of Alternaria cichorii was inhibited by blue-light (360–530 nm) radiation; a small dose of blue-light energy (6 × 10 −1 μE m 2 s −1 ) was enough to suppress conidiation. Blue light was most effective in inhibiting conidiation when the fungus was exposed to it between 4 and 6 h after the termination of a period of inductive radiation. Near ultraviolet (uv) radiation (0.54 μE m −2 s −1 for 30 min), following blue light, reversed the inhibition.
