Abstract We investigated whether phospholipases play a role in citrus fruit susceptibility to be infected by Penicillium digitatum, and connection exists between hormone abscisic acid (ABA) the fruit-P. digitatum interaction. Changes both activity of enzymes PLD, PLC PLA2 expression set genes encoding them response infection Navelate (Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck) orange its ABA-deficient mutant...

Conversion of the monovalent polyether antibiotic monensin into a series of urethane derivatives substituted at C-26 causes a ten-fold increase in the cation transporting properties of the antibiotic as well as making the resulting semisynthetic urethanes divalent ionophores. These changes must in part account for the enhanced antimicrobial activities of the urethanes. The most active derivativ...

Antibacterial and antifungal properties of wax and hexane extracts of Citrus spp. peels were tested using bioautographic and microdilution techniques against three plant pathogenic fungi (Penicillium digitatum, Curvularia sp., and Colletotrichum sp.), two human pathogens (Trichophyton mentagrophytes and Microsporum canis), and two opportunistic bacteria (Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aure...

This study identified secondary metabolites produced by Alternaria alternata, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, and Penicillium digitatum in fruits of two blood orange cultivars before harvest. Analysis was performed UHPLC–Q-TOF-MS. Three types were selected, asymptomatic, symptomatic showing necrotic lesions caused hail, mummified. Extracts from peel juice analyzed separately. the prevalent spec...

Biodiversity of phylloplane and endophytic fungi have been considered as one of the rich source of novel natural compounds of biological activities and a high level of structure diversity on the leaf surfaces. Bioactive components produced by phylloplane and endophytes have shown promising potentiality towards human health. In this juncture, it is necessary to understand and manipulate this imp...

Etlhylene production by the greenl miold of citrus, Plenicilliutmit digitatuimit Sacc., has beeni investigated by a number of workers (1), but its pathway of biosynthesis and importance in fungal metabolism have yet to be defined. Factors affecting growth of the funglus have been studied intensively and a satisfactory medium has been developed (2, 7). The importance of zinc and yeast extract as...

Small RNAs in Penicillium digitatum were identified and analyzed via transcriptome sequencing on the BGISEQ-500 platform. A total of 15 predicted miRNAs 10718 novel siRNAs found. Their length distribution, sequence, construction, base bias, expression levels potential targets determined as well. Through pathway KEGG enrichment analysis, miRNA target genes mostly involved carbohydrate metabolism...
