This study aimed to investigate the effect of Pichia galeiformis on disease resistance and elucidate changes in phenylpropane biosynthesis treated by P. postharvest citrus. The results showed that reduced incidence lesion diameters without direct contact with pathogen Penicillium digitatum. Transcriptome analysis revealed phenylpropanoid was triggered galeiformis. Genes encoding were upregulated, including phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), 4-coumaroyl-CoA ligase (4CL),...

Abstract To learn how salicylic acid (SA) may affect disease resistance in mango, mango fruit ( Mangifera indica L. cv. ‘Matisu’) were treated with 1 mmol L −1 SA solution under vacuum infiltration for 2 min at a low pressure (−80 kPa) and an additional 10 air pressure. The inoculated anthracnose Colletotichum gloeosporioides Penz.) spore suspension (1 × 4 CFU mL ) incubated 13 °C, 85–95% RH. Disease incidence lesion diameter in/on the SA‐treated 37.5% 20.9% lower than that control on 4th...

Abstract BACKGROUND Nitric oxide ( NO ) is an important signaling molecule involved in numerous plant responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. To investigate the effects of on control postharvest anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides citrus fruit its possible mechanisms, were treated with donor. RESULTS The results showed that exogenous released from 50 µmol L −1 sodium nitroprusside aqueous solution could effectively reduce disease incidence lesion diameter inoculated C....

Penicillium digitatum causes serious losses in postharvest citrus fruit. Exogenous salicylic acid (SA) can induce fruit resistance against various pathogens, but the mechanism remains unclear. Herein, a transcriptome-based approach was used to investigate underlying of SA-induced P. digitatum. We found that CsWRKY70 and genes related methyl salicylate (MeSA) biosynthesis (salicylate carboxymethyltransferase, SAMT) were induced by exogenous SA. Moreover, significant MeSA accumulation detected...

Abstract BACKGROUND Penicillium digitatum is one of the most important pathogens causing citrus green mold, leading to significant economic losses. Traditionally, synthetic fungicides are used control diseases. However, side effects should not be ignored. Thus, antagonistic yeasts were proposed safe and effective alternatives for managing Orchards excellent sources naturally occurring antagonists against pathogens. Therefore, in present study, obtained from orchards screened, possible...
