Penicillium italicum is a fungal plant pathogen.

Inoculation of healthy fruit can be diminished and controlled by careful picking, handling, and packaging of the citrus so that the rinds are not damaged.

Without chance of injury inflicted on the fruit, the conidia are unable to gain access, and thus unable to germinate into infectious pathogens.
