“…The defence response includes: production of inhibitors of cell wall-degrading enzymes of the pathogen, activity of antifungal compounds (such as phenolic compounds and phytolaexins), active oxygen species, and reinforcement of the cell wall of the host (Jamalizadeh et al 2011). The resistance induction is due to the antagonist ability to elicit host plant defence responses.…”

Postharvest decay in harvested fruit causes considerable economical losses. Fungicides are the primary means to control these losses. Public concern in food safety and environmental issues and the increase of pathogen resistant populations have enhanced the interest in developing alternative methods to fungicides to control postharvest fruit decay. During the last two decades a huge information and advances concerning the selection of antagonists, mode of action, different approaches to enhance biocontrol activity, formulation and production have been achieved, and some biofungicides are already in the market. It is likely that several more products will enter the market in the near future, as the result of the biological control research programs worldwide. Nonetheless, it is necessary to continue finding new potential microorganisms, better understanding the mode of action, and pathogen, antagonist and host interactions, to increase the potential of biocontrol helping to become a real alternative to synthetic postharvest fungicides. This article presents an overview of postharvest biological control approaches and explores new research possibilities to improve biocontrol activity.

KEYWORDS Burkholderia MALDI-TOF MS Plant growth promotion Phylogeny ABSTRACTThe occurrence of Burkholderia genus as plant endophyte indigenous to locally cultivated sugarcane crop was studied. Totally 22 endophytic isolates were obtained from TB-T medium plates of which 10 were found to be putatively endophytic in sugarcane. The morphological, biochemical and MALDI-TOF MS analysis were done and 5 endophytic Burkholderia sp. isolates were identified. Among them, the isolate Burkholderia sp. ES4 shown maximum; diazotrophic activity (total nitrogen: 11.9 mg g -1 of malate; nitrogenase activity: 578.3 n mol C2H4 released h -1 mg -1 protein), mineral solubilization activity (10.2mm, 8.2mm and 3.2 mm solublization zone of P, ZnO and CaCO3 respectively; available phosphorous: 0.72mg ml -1 ), antagonistic activity (54.56 percent inhibition of Colletotrichum falcatum mycelium) and phytohormone production (IAA (16.09 µg ml -1 ); GA (10.54 µg ml -1 )), thereby revealing its plant growth promoting potential. The 16S r RNA gene sequence of the isolate Burkholderia sp. ES4 was sequenced and its phylogenetic analysis shown that the isolate forms a monophyletic subclade within the plant-beneficial-environment" (PBE) Burkholderia group. Thus a potent native plant endophytic strain, Burkholderia sp. ES4 that could be developed as biofertilizer inoculum for sugarcane crop, was obtained in this study.
