Methionine-induced Ethylene Production by Penicillium digitatum [PDF]
Shake cultures, in contrast to static cultures of Penicillium digitatum grown in liquid medium, were induced by methionine to produce ethylene. The induction was concentration-dependent, and 7 mM was optimum for the methionine effect. In the presence of methionine, glucose (7 mM) enhanced ethylene production but did not itself induce ethylene ...

UVA photoactivation of harmol enhances its antifungal activity against the phytopathogens Penicillium digitatum and Botrytis cinerea [PDF]
Phytopathogenic fungi responsible for post-harvest diseases on fruit and vegetables cause important economic losses. We have previously reported that harmol (1-methyl-9H-pyrido[3,4-b]indol-7-ol) is active against the causal agents of green and gray molds
