Volatile organic compounds produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae inhibit the in vitro development of Guignardia citricarpa, the causal agent of citrus black spot (2010, background): “In addition, this process would be an environmentally safer alternative to control diseases at postharvest, since the yeast does not have to be in direct contact with the fruits and the fumigation is compatible to packing house systems, since it minimizes product handling (Mercier and Jiménez 2004).”
Bioactive secondary metabolites produced by microorganisms associated with plants (2007, background): “Since M. albus is a sterile mycelium and does not require direct contact with the crops to be treated, it could be an attractive biological fumigant for controlling postharvest diseases (Mercier & Jiménez 2004).”
Control of green mold and sour rot of stored lemon by biofumigation with Muscodor albus (2005, methodology): “Other volatiles detected were mainly alcohol or ester derivatives of benign toxicity (Mercier and Jiménez, 2004; Strobel et al., 2001).”
Biological control of postharvest diseases by microbial antagonists: how many mechanisms of action? (2016, background): “2013 ) or by Muscodor albus ( Mercier and Jiménez 2004 ) were most active against some fungal postharvest diseases and their application appeared promising .”
Postharvest biological control of blue mold of apple by Pseudomonas fluorescens during commercial storage and potential modes of action (2017, background): “Preliminary work on fumigation by a biocontrol agent (Mercier and Jiménez, 2003) showed that fumigation of apples with”
Endophytic fungal entomopathogens with activity against plant pathogens: ecology and evolution (2010, background): “…Muscodor albus Worapong, Strobel & W.M. Hess (Ascomycota: Xylariales) produces a mixture of VOCs that are lethal to a variety of microorganisms (Strobel et al. 2001; Mercier and Jiménez 2004; Mercier and Smilanick 2005; Strobel 2006), as well as to insects (Riga et al. 2008; Lacey et al. 2009).”
Biological control of postharvest diseases of fruit (2011, background): “It inhibits or kills a broad range of bacteria and fungi through the production of a mixture of volatile organic compounds, such 2-methyl-1-butanol, isobutyric acid, ethyl propionate and phenethyl alcohol (Strobel et al. 2001; Mercier and Jiménez 2004).”
