The diseases which develop on harvested parts of the plants like seeds, fruits are known as postharvest diseases. Pathogen attack may take place during harvesting and subsequent handling,
storage, marketing, and after consumer purchase. The plant parts may get infected in the field,
but expression of symptoms may take place later, at any stage before final consumption. The
postharvest diseases that cause spoilage of both durable and perishable commodities are
widespread. Losses inflicted throughout the supply chain due to pathogen-induced diseases are
the major component of food wastage and may occur at any time from preharvest to
consumption. The capability of a microorganism to initiate postharvest diseases, as well as its
final outcome, depend on a number of factors that can conveniently be associated with,
microorganism, the host and/or the environment. The integrative strategies for control of
postharvest diseases include effectively inhibiting pathogens growth, enhancing resistance of
hosts and improving environmental conditions resulting favourable to the host and unfavourable
to the pathogen growth. The strategies that can directly act upon the microbial pathogens may be
integrated as, physical + chemical, physical+ biocontrol, biocontrol + chemical and resistance+
biocontrol + physical + chemical methods. The possibility of integrating the different effective
strategies to achieve higher level of control of postharvest pathogens and to minimize or replace
the use of synthetic fungicides has to be explored in certain host–pathogen systems
