Abstract Green mold, blue mold and sour rot caused by Penicillium digitatum, Penicillium italicum and Geotrichum citri-aurantii infections, respectively, are major fungal diseases of citrus fruit. The above-mentioned diseases present a great threat to fruit quality, it is very important to clarify the pathogenicity mechanisms of the pathogens and the resistance mechanism of the host, but the mechanisms remain largely unknown. In this study, RNA sequencing was employed to analyze the gene expression of citrus fruit to P. digitatum, P. italicum and G. citri-aurantii on a genome-wide scale. The results suggest that a total of 4,520, 4785 and 4683 genes of citrus fruit were differentially expressed (P-value
