Light Intensity Alters the Behavior of Monilinia spp. in vitro and the Disease Development on Stone Fruit-Pathogen Interaction
(Frontiers Media, 2021-09-08)
The development of brown rot caused by the necrotrophic fungi Monilinia spp. in stone fruit under field and postharvest conditions depends, among others, on environmental factors. The effect of temperature ...
Insight into a Successful Development of Biocontrol Agents: Production, Formulation, Packaging, and Shelf Life as Key Aspects
(MDPI, 2022-04-04)
Biocontrol agents (BCAs) have been proposed and studied over recent decades as a suita‐ ble alternative to diminish or substitute synthetic fungicides used to control pre‐ and postharvest diseases. ...
Novel film‐forming formulations of the biocontrol agent Candida sake CPA‐1: biocontrol efficacy and performance at field conditions in organic wine grapes
(Wiley, 2018-09-07)
BACKGROUND: The biocontrol agent (BCA)Candida sakeCPA-1 has previously effectively reducedBotrytisbunch rot (BBR) andit was also suggested as a promising strategy to control sour rot in grapes under ...
Transcriptional profiling of the terpenoid biosynthesis pathway and in vitro tests reveal putative roles of linalool and farnesal in nectarine resistance against brown rot
(Elsevier, 2022-12-06)
The most devastating fungal disease of peaches and nectarines is brown rot, caused by Monilinia spp. Among the many plant responses against biotic stress, plant terpenoids play essential protective ...
Brown rot on stone fruit: from epidemiology studies to the development of effective control strategies
(Elsevier, 2022-04-23)
In the last years, our research has focused on the study of brown rot on stone fruit caused by Monilinia spp. in the ‘Valle del Ebro’ (Spain). The epidemiology of this disease was thoroughly investigated ...

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development planned 17 Sustainable Development
Goals (SDGs) to ensure a better present and future for our planet and the people that
are living on it. The European Union ...
Inactivation of Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes and murine norovirus (MNV-1) on fresh strawberries by conventional and water-assisted ultraviolet light (UV-C)
(Elsevier, 2020-12-31)
The efficacy of the water-assisted ultraviolet-C light (WUVC) strategy was evaluated as an alternative to chlorine sanitization and compared to ‘conventional’ dry technology (DUVC) for the inactivation ...
Pseudomonas synxantha volatile organic compounds: efficacy against Cadophora luteo-olivacea and Botrytis cinerea of kiwifruit
(Frontiers Media, 2024-05-08)
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are responsible for the antagonistic activity
exerted by different biological control agents (BCAs). In this study, VOCs
produced by Pseudomonas synxantha strain ...
Evaluation of cell death-inducing activity of Monilinia spp. effectors in several plants using a modified TRV expression system
(Frontiers Media, 2024-08-16)
Introduction: Brown rot is the most important fungal disease affecting stone fruit and it is mainly caused by Monilinia fructicola, M. laxa and M. fructigena. Monilinia spp. are necrotrophic plant ...
