This deliverable defines the target fungal microorganisms which will be studied in the framework of the SafeWax project. These microorganisms will be used throughout the project to screen and assess the antifungal efficacy of the developed SafeWax formulations and coatings in lab experiments. Specifically, the list includes fungal species such as Botrytis cinerea, known to pose a major problem in the cultivation of grapevines around the world, as well as other prevalent pathogens that are known to affect commodity crops.This list may be further expanded as the project progresses to include additional strains or fungal species.
