Biocontrol Activity of the Local Strain of Metschnikowia pulcherrima on Different Postharvest Pathogens
The strains of the yeast Metschnikowia pulcherrima have strong biocontrol activity against various microorganisms. Biocontrol activity of M. pulcherrima largely depends on its iron immobilizing pigment pulcherrimin. Biocontrol activity of pulcherrimin producing strain, M. pulcherrima UMY15, isolated from local vineyards, was tested on different molds that cause food spoilage. M. pulcherrima UMY...
متن کاملEffect of heat shock treatment on stress tolerance and biocontrol efficacy of Metschnikowia fructicola.
The effect of high temperature and oxidative stress on the cell viability of the yeast antagonist, Metschnikowia fructicola was determined. A mild heat shock (HS) pretreatment (30 min at 40 °C) improved the tolerance of M. fructicola to subsequent high temperature (45 °C, 20-30 min) and oxidative stress (0.4 mol L⁻¹ hydrogen peroxide, 20-60 min). HS-treated yeast cells showed less accumulation ...
متن کاملRecent developments in Pseudomonas biocontrol mechanisms
Fluorescent pseudomonads are an effective source of biological control that have high adaptive power and able to produce a wonderful source of secondary metabolites. Antibiotics such as phenazines, diacetylphloroglucinol, and hydrogen cyanide are produced by certain taxonomic groups of the genus Pseudomonas and appear to be ancestral. These compounds often play a physiological role in the produ...
متن کاملChallenges and Opportunities for the Commercialization of Postharvest Biocontrol
The past twenty years has seen the field of postharvest biocontrol evolve into a sophisticated science with global research programs worldwide, numerous yearly publications, patented technologies, and the development of new commercial products. The use of these products, however, still remains limited. The practical application of postharvest biocontrol has changed from a very classical view of...
متن کاملMetschnikowia Species Share a Pool of Diverse rRNA Genes Differing in Regions That Determine Hairpin-Loop Structures and Evolve by Reticulation
Modern taxonomy of yeasts is mainly based on phylogenetic analysis of conserved DNA and protein sequences. By far the most frequently used sequences are those of the repeats of the chromosomal rDNA array. It is generally accepted that the rDNA repeats of a genome have identical sequences due to the phenomenon of sequence homogenisation and can thus be used for identification and barcoding of sp...
