This chapter examines the quiescence period during different stages of fungal attack of postharvest pathogens: quiescence during spore germination and initial hyphal development, during and after appressorium formation, and quiescence of germinated appressorium and subcuticular hyphae. The different mechanisms for quiescence are reviewed: factors affecting quiescence of germinated spores, appressoria formation and germination, and fungal colonization. Special emphasis is given to mechanisms of quiescence involving fungal colonization: 1. the pathogen's nutritional requirements, 2. preformed antifungal compounds, 3. the elicitation of phytoalexins and preformed compounds, and 4. the activation of factors in fungal pathogenicity.

收获后疾病中的病原体静止。

本章考察了采后病原体在真菌侵袭的不同阶段的休眠期：孢子萌发和初始菌丝发育过程中的休眠期，以及在包膜形成期间和之后的休眠期，以及发芽的包膜和表皮下菌丝的休眠期。静态的不同机制进行了综述：影响萌发的孢子的静态，压迫感形成和萌发以及真菌定植的因素。特别强调涉及真菌定植的静止机制：1.病原体的营养需求； 2.预先形成的抗真菌化合物； 3.诱导植物抗毒素和预先形成的化合物；以及4.激活真菌致病性的因子。
