Isolates of G. candidum from citrus, melons, tomatoes, Litchi chinensis and potatoes were tested for their in vitro sensitivity to guazatine. Citrus isolates were most sensitive, a tomato isolate was most tolerant and the remaining isolates were of intermediate sensitivity. No differences were found in their morphology. It is suggested that different responses to guazatine support the concept of a 'citrus race' based on physiological differences. The potential for selecting more guazatine-tolerant strains from tomatoes, if guazatine is used to control sour rot, is discussed.
