Summary: This study investigates the efficiency of an ultra-high irradiance (UHI) LED device to induce inactivation of bacterial and fungal spores. The results show that the 385 nm wavelength of UHI has a higher potential in killing spores, with a reduction of S. cerevisiae spores of 4.2-log10 CFU/ml and B. cereus endospores of 4.2-log10 CFU/ml after 30 min. In the challenge test on infected mandarins, UHI 385 nm treatment significantly reduces mycelial and sporulation areas of fungi.

Summary: This study evaluated the potential application of different antifungal proteins (AFPs) in controlling Penicillium decay, and found that PAFB was the most potent AFP against P. digitatum, P. italicum, and P. expansum. The combination of different AFPs did not result in an increase in disease control efficacy.

Summary: The study showed that anthocyanins play an important role in plant resistance to fungal pathogens by inducing the expression of genes related to disease resistance and reducing the accumulation of reactive oxygen species associated with fungal infection. This leads to improved resistance of citrus fruit to postharvest green mold, highlighting the potential of anthocyanins in controlling fruit diseases.

Summary: Penicillium digitatum acidifies the extracellular environments of fruit during decay development, which decreases the efficacy of biological approaches. The interaction between P. digitatum and the antagonistic yeast Rhodosporidium paludigenum showed different control effects at varying concentrations and conditions. This study provides insights into the mechanisms by which extracellular acidification caused by acids produced by P. digitatum enhances antagonistic yeast biocontrol of green mold in citrus.

Summary: The study found that treatment with 125 mM BABA effectively inhibited the growth, germination, and elongation of Penicillium digitatum, while also increasing the relative electrical conductivity and malondialdehyde content in the mycelium. Additionally, BABA treatment at 125 mM led to a decrease in ergosterol content, as well as increased leakage of protein, sugar, and a reduction in total lipid content in the mycelia of P. digitatum. In orange fruit, BABA treatment at 125 mM significantly reduced disease incidence and severity, while enhancing the activity of defense-related enzymes.

Summary: This study evaluated the content and degree of acetylation (DA) of acemannan in 15 different commercial beverages containing Aloe vera. Flavoured beverages had low levels of acemannan and were fully deacetylated in most cases, likely due to the addition of fruit juices. Unflavoured beverages had variable levels of acemannan, with some samples containing very low amounts. Legislation regarding Aloe vera products is limited, leaving consumers uncertain about the true properties of the products they purchase.

Summary: This study identified promising halophilic bacteria from diverse saline ecosystems for controlling postharvest diseases in citrus fruits. Two strains, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens EAM1 and B. amyloliquefaciens ER2, demonstrated exceptional inhibitory effects against green and blue citrus molds, highlighting their potential as biocontrol agents.

Summary: This study clarifies the regulatory role of CsERF1B in citrus green mold and explores the regulatory mechanism. CsERF1B enhances fruit resistance to green mold and induces upregulated expression of pathogenesis-related genes. It directly activates lignin synthesis genes, jasmonic acid signaling genes, and immunity-related genes, and also represses salicylic acid signaling pathway genes, participating in the regulation of fruit disease resistance.

Summary: Green mold caused by Penicillium digitatum is a major postharvest disease in citrus fruit, but the molecular mechanism related to the induced disease resistance in citrus is still unclear. This study investigated the regulatory function of CsWRKY33 on citrus disease resistance. The results showed that CsWRKY33 played an important role in regulating disease resistance pathways and activating the expression of genes involved in disease resistance.

Summary: This study evaluated the inhibitory mechanisms of aluminum sulfate (AlS) as a control agent for citrus green mold. The results showed that AlS increased chitinase activity, enhanced damage to the cell wall, and increased defense-related enzyme activity in citrus. In vivo experiments demonstrated that AlS solution significantly reduced the incidence and severity of the disease. Therefore, AlS may be an effective preservative and antistaling agent against postharvest green mold of citrus.

Summary: The study demonstrated that the combination of CaOW-CPT and modified atmosphere packaging had positive effects on the storability of mandarins, delaying the decrease in ascorbic acid concentration and antioxidant activity, as well as inhibiting the growth of Penicillium digitatum. The microbial decontamination system integrating CaOW, MAP, and CPT showed potential for extending the shelf life of mandarins.

Summary: The biocontrol of green mould on mandarin fruit was evaluated using three antagonistic yeasts (Hanseniaspora uvarum, Meyerozyma guilliermondii, and Metschnikowia aff. pul-cherrima P01A016), either alone or in combination. All yeast cultures, alone or in combination, showed inhibitory effects on the mycelial growth of green mould in vitro. Meyerozyma guilliermondii and M. aff. pulcherrima exhibited the highest biocontrol activity, and the combination of these three yeasts showed synergistic cooperation, making it an eco-friendly and sustainable alternative to synthetic fungicides for the management of postharvest diseases in mandarins caused by Penicillium digitatum.

Summary: This study examined the nutritional content and microbial load of Liang leaves at different maturity stages and the effects of washing with chlorinated water. Results showed that Liang leaves have distinct nutritional profiles, with intermediate leaves being high in dietary fiber and abundant in essential amino acids and proteins. Washing with chlorinated water can reduce microbial counts, but stem detachment during washing can increase the counts of coliform and Escherichia coli.
