This is a typical strawberry albino.

Strawberry albino fruit is a very common physiological disease on strawberries. Strawberry albino fruit generally small fruit, fruit ripening after chlorosis can not be colored normally. Part of the fruit or even all of the fruit surface is white, like a layer of white wax, the boundary is bright, and the white part has a ring of red around the seed. Diseased fruit is light in taste and soft in texture with variegated, pink or white flesh. Diseased fruit will not tolerate storage and soon spoil.

What causes strawberry albino fruit?

Environmental factor

Low light: Insufficient light will affect photosynthesis, resulting in the reduction of soluble solid content in strawberry fruit, resulting in albino fruit.

Low temperature: Low temperature will inhibit the synthesis of pigments in the fruit, resulting in fruit bleaching.

Rainy weather: Rainy weather will lead to high water content in the fruit, affecting the synthesis of pigments in the fruit.

 

Physiological factor

Malnutrition: The low sugar content and lack of phosphorus and potassium in strawberry fruit can lead to fruit bleaching.

Improper fertilization: too much nitrogen fertilizer can lead to fruit bleaching.

Too much fruit: Too much fruit and poor leaf development can lead to fruit bleaching.

Variety factors: Some strawberry varieties themselves have low soluble solid content and are prone to albino fruit.

 

Overall, the occurrence of strawberry albino fruit is mainly related to light, temperature, water, nutrition, variety and other factors.

In production, attention should be paid to strengthening field management, improving environmental conditions, reasonable fertilization, and selecting varieties suitable for local cultivation to reduce the occurrence of strawberry albino fruit.

solution

Specific prevention and control measures are as follows:

Strengthen light management, reasonable close planting, timely picking the heart, improve the fruit ventilation and light transmission conditions.

Timely topdressing and increased application of phosphate and potassium fertilizer can promote fruit coloring.

Control the amount of nitrogen fertilizer application to avoid overgrowth of plants.

Regulate watering properly to prevent excessive water in the fruit.

Choose varieties suitable for local cultivation, and pay attention to planting management.
