Summary We present the first worldwide study on apple ( Malus × domestica) fruit microbiome that examines questions regarding composition and assembly of microbial communities in fruit. Results revealed structure fungal bacterial associated with vary are highly dependent geographical location. The also confirmed spatial variation different tissues exists at a global level. Fungal diversity varied significantly harvested locations suggests potential link between location type rate postharvest...
Biocontrol agents (BCAs) have been proposed and studied over recent decades as a suitable alternative to diminish or substitute synthetic fungicides used control pre- postharvest diseases. However, the development of BCAs has many constraints obstacles that would be overcome before they could successfully implemented in market. For BCA commercial development, microorganism should mass-produced on large-scale, and, independently method for production, particular plan regarding formulation by...
SummaryThe potential of using essential oils instead synthetic fungicides to control Penicillium digitatum and P. italicum on citrus fruits was evaluated. The objectives this study were determine the antifungal activity 20 colony growth in vitro evaluate their efficacy vivo by simulating fungicide application packing-line or incorporating them into packaging oranges. In against mycelial evaluated both direct contact, vapour phase. Thyme, oregano, clove cinnamon completely inhibited either...
The cap fits! A new class of concave π-extended tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) derivatives, truxene-TTFs, were prepared and characterized, their self-assembly with fullerenes was investigated (see picture). Truxene-TTFs represent the first example TTF-related electron donors that serve, without chemical modification, as monotopic receptors for in solution.

SummaryThe potential of using hot water (2.5 min at 45°C), 2% sodium carbonate or bicarbonate solutions alone combined with water, for control Penicillium digitatum (green mould) was investigated on commecially ripe clementines. The effect such treatments the post-harvest storage life clementines determined during two months analysing weight loss, increase in rind deformation and internal maturity. Carbonate effectively green mould but does not. Compared hot-water treated fruits, and, to a...
To prepare commercially acceptable formulations of Bacillus subtilis CPA-8 by spray-drying with long storage life and retained efficacy to control peach nectarine brown rot caused Monilinia spp.CPA-8 24-h- 72-h-old cultures were spray dried using 10% skimmed milk, milk plus MgSO(4) , 20% as carriers/protectants. All carriers/protectants gave good percentages powder recovery (28-38%) moisture content (7-13%). survival varied considerably among spray-dried cultures. Seventy-two hours culture...
