Litsea cubeba Essential Oil Reduces Postharvest Blueberry Rot by Inducing Cell Membrane Damage and Reactive Oxygen Species Accumulation in Alternaria alternata

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Litsea cubeba essential oil (LCEO) reduces blueberry rot while maintaining quality. It disrupts the cellular structure and membranes of Alternaria alternata, causing solute leakage, while simultaneously inducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) damage in the pathogen.

Investigating the Impact of Three Washing Methods on Microbial Reduction, Color, and Texture of Spinach and Tomatoes

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
The effectiveness of three washing methods (tap water, 0.01% sodium hypochlorite, and 1% citric acid) was investigated on spinach and tomatoes. The citric acid solution demonstrated the highest microbial reduction for both spinach and tomatoes, particularly during storage, and maintained the produce texture or color.

Preharvest application of antagonistic yeasts for the control of fungal pathogens in organic peach and plum orchards

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The control of fungal diseases in organic fruit production remains a major challenge due to the limited availability of authorized phytosanitary tools. This study evaluates the efficacy of two antagonistic yeasts – Metschnikowia pulcherrima L672 and Hanseniaspora uvarum L793 – in organic peach (Prunus persica) and plum (Prunus ...
