The heavenly fruit, mango, is subject to infection by twenty different genera of fungi from flowering to post-harvest. Among the diseases, anthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and stem-end rot, caused by Lasiodiplodia theobromae are the most important. Both C. gloeosporioides and L. theobromae cause infection in the field and are carried over to fruits, wherein they remain dormant and establish upon ripening. Thus, unripe fruits that appear healthy during harvest may develop typical symptoms of the diseases upon ripening. Hence, the present study was taken up in order to develop polyclonal antibodies against both the pathogens, for the serological detection of their presence in fruits before fruit ripening.
