Inhibition of Penicillium expansum by an oxidative treatment

Food Microbiology, 2013
Several oxidizing compounds such as sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) and hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) are used to control postharvest decay in fresh fruit due to their antimicrobial effects. Here, we applied these compounds in vitro, in the presence of CuSO(4), against Penicillium expansum, causal agent of apple blue mold. MICs were 50 mg L(-1) and 400 mmol

Genomic Characterization Reveals Insights Into Patulin Biosynthesis and Pathogenicity in Penicillium Species

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2015
Penicillium species are fungal pathogens that infect crop plants worldwide. P. expansum differs from P. italicum and P. digitatum, all major postharvest pathogens of pome and citrus, in that the former is able to produce the mycotoxin patulin and has a ...

Induction and Quantification of Patulin Production in Penicillium Species

Bio-Protocol, 2017
Patulin, a worldwide regulated mycotoxin, is primarily produced by Penicillium and Aspergillus species during fruit spoilage. Patulin contamination is a great concern with regard to human health because exposure of the mycotoxin can result in severe ...

Patulin accumulation in apples during storage by Penicillium expansum and Penicillium griseofulvum strains [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Microbiology, 2011
A part of apples destined to juice production is generally of poor quality. Apples from cold storage or recently harvest (ground harvested or low quality apples) are stored under ambient conditions until they are processed. Since Penicillium expansum and P.

Identification and characterization of LysM effectors in Penicillium expansum

PLOS ONE, 2017
P. expansum is regarded as one of the most important postharvest rots of apple fruit and is also of great concern to fruit processing industries. Elucidating the pathogenicity mechanism of this pathogen is of utmost importance for the development of effective and safe management strategies. Although, many studies on modification of the host environment

Factors Affecting Patulin Production by Penicillium expansum

Journal of Food Protection, 2002
Patulin, a mycotoxin produced by Penicillium spp. during fruit spoilage, is a major concern with regard to human health because exposure can result in severe acute and chronic toxicity, including carcinogenic, mutagenic, and teratogenic effects.
