EFE-Mediated Ethylene Synthesis Is the Major Pathway in the Citrus Postharvest Pathogen Penicillium digitatum during Fruit Infection [PDF]

Journal of Fungi, 2020
Penicillium digitatum is the main fungal postharvest pathogen of citrus fruit under Mediterranean climate conditions. The role of ethylene in the P. digitatum–citrus fruit interaction is unclear and controversial.

Physiological and Proteomic Analysis of Penicillium digitatum in Response to X33 Antifungal Extract Treatment [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Penicillium digitatum is a widespread pathogen among Rutaceae species that causes severe fruit decay symptoms on infected citrus fruit (known as citrus green mold). The employment of fungicides can effectively control the citrus green mold, significantly

Sodium Cuminate Inhibits the Mycelial Growth of Penicillium digitatum by Inducing Oxidative Stress and Damaging the Cell Membrane [PDF]

Journal of Fungi
Green mold formed by Penicillium digitatum is a major disease that limits the yield and overall value of postharvest citrus fruits. The antifungal activity of sodium cuminate (SC) against P. digitatum and the corresponding mechanism were explored in this

Functional and Pharmacological Analyses of the Role of Penicillium digitatum Proteases on Virulence. [PDF]

Microorganisms, 2019
Penicillium digitatum is the major postharvest pathogen of citrus fruit under Mediterranean climate conditions. Previous results have shown that proteases is the largest enzyme family induced by P. digitatum during fruit infection. In the present work, we addressed the study of the role of P.

Potential of Antifungal Proteins (AFPs) to Control Penicillium Postharvest Fruit Decay

Journal of Fungi, 2021
Penicillium phytopathogenic species provoke severe postharvest disease and economic losses. Penicillium expansum is the main pome fruit phytopathogen while Penicillium digitatum and Penicillium italicum cause citrus green and blue mold, respectively ...

Development of a FungalBraid Penicillium expansum‐based expression system for the production of antifungal proteins in fungal biofactories

Microbial Biotechnology, 2022
Summary Fungal antifungal proteins (AFPs) have attracted attention as novel biofungicides. Their exploitation requires safe and cost‐effective producing biofactories. Previously, Penicillium chrysogenum and Penicillium digitatum produced recombinant AFPs

The Biogenesis of Ethylene in Penicillium Digitatum [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 1968
The origin of the ethylene carbon skeleton in Penicillium digitatum appears to be intimately associated with the Krebs cycle acids, particularly the middle carbon atoms of dicarboxylic acids. Among the other compounds studied, certain carbon atoms of beta-alanine, propionic acid, and methionine can be incorporated into the ethylene carbon skeleton ...
