Native Killer Yeasts as Biocontrol Agents of Postharvest Fungal Diseases in Lemons
Economic losses caused by postharvest diseases represent one of the main problems of the citrus industry worldwide. The major diseases affecting citrus are the "green mold" and "blue mold", caused by Penicillium digitatum and P. italicum, respectively. To control them, synthetic fungicides are the most commonly used method. However, often the emergence of resistant strains occurs and their use ...
متن کاملWild Grape-Associated Yeasts as Promising Biocontrol Agents against Vitis vinifera Fungal Pathogens
The increasing level of hazardous residues in the environment and food chains has led the European Union to restrict the use of chemical fungicides. Thus, exploiting new natural antagonistic microorganisms against fungal diseases could serve the agricultural production to reduce pre- and post-harvest losses, to boost safer practices for workers and to protect the consumers' health. The main aim...
متن کاملPlant Pathogens as Biocontrol Agents in Native Hawaìn Ecosystems
Several examples, some spectacular, are available of successful applications of weed biocontrol approaches with plant pathogenic agents in agricultural and rangeland situations. The overall percentage rate of success of all such programs attempted cannot yet be documented, however. Both the "mycoherbicide" method, in which large quantities of inoculum are directly applied to target plants, and ...

متن کاملFungal parasites of invertebrates: multimodal biocontrol agents?
Introduction Nematophagous and entomopathogenic fungi (NEF) comprise an important group of fungal parasites of invertebrates (FPI). NEF belong to a wide range of fungal taxa, but most of them are anamorphic fungi and facultative parasites. These fungi can infect, kill and digest nematodes and insects, respectively, which we will call their canonical, or normal, hosts. These hosts have barriers ...
