“…According to Lane (2002), variations in colony coloring help distinguishing the three Monilinia species. This assertion is also supported by Poniatowska et al (2013), who state that the coloration, crop growth and the colony margin characteristics are particular to each Monilinia species. According to these authors, the shades of gray are the most characteristic color of M. fructicola, similar to what was observed in this work for most of the studied isolates.…”

“…However, Poniatowska et al (2013) found that the highest mean of mycelial growth for the M. fructicola species was obtained in the PDA culture medium, followed by the cherry juice medium. In general, in the present study of the 35 isolates, 17 of them had a larger mycelial diameter in the peach juice medium when compared to the PDA medium.…”

“…According to the results of Poniatowska et al (2013), differences in colony coloration between M. fructicola isolates were observed in three culture media, ranging from shades of gray, for the PDA culture medium, to white and gray, for cherry juice and acidified PDA media. In the present study, in the Pagnocca medium, the predominant coloration of the isolates was white whereas in the peach juice medium there was a small variation, from white to rosy, according to the Munsell Color table (1954) (Figure 4).…”

“…Currently, the morphological characterization, combined with the use of specific primers for the identification of Monilinia spp., has allowed verifying phenotypic variations among isolates. This, in addition to facilitating the identification at the species level of fungi causing brown rot, makes possible the planning of control strategies (De Cal & Melgarejo, 1999;Côté et al, 2004;Poniatowska et al, 2013).…”

The brown rot caused by the fungus Monilinia spp. is the main disease of peach (Prunus persica) that occurs from flowering to post-harvest fruit. The objective of this study was to identify the species that causes brown rot in Rio Grande do Sul state using molecular method based on specific primers and study the morphological variability of Monilinia isolates using classic characterization methods. The isolates were collected in the main producing regions of peaches and determination of species was performed by using specific primers to the genus Monilinia. The culture media BDA  , peach juice and Pagnocca were used for the morphological characterization of isolates. Molecular study showed that all isolates from Rio Grande do Sul are the species M. fructicola. In the morphological characterization, such as mycelial diameter, color, margin, shape and elevation of the colonies and dry mass of mycelium, there are variability in the analyzed characteristics of the isolates in the three-culture media used. In the comparing the culture media, the higher dry matter values and diameter of colony isolates were obtained in Pagnocca and peach juice means. Key words: phenotypic characterization; brown rot; Prunus persica Identificação e variabilidade de isolados de Monilinia spp. de pessegueiro RESUMOA podridão parda causada pelo fungo Monilinia spp. é a principal doença que ocorre desde a floração até a pós-colheita de frutos de pessegueiro (Prunus persica) no Brasil. O objetivo deste trabalho foi identificar a espécie causadora da podridão parda no Rio Grande do Sul usando método molecular baseado em primers específicos e estudar a variabilidade morfológica de isolados de Monilinia através dos métodos clássicos de caracterização. Os isolados foram coletados nas principais regiões produtoras de pêssegos e a determinação da espécie foi realizada através da utilização de primers específicos para o gênero Monilinia. Os meios de cultura BDA  , Suco de pêssego e Pagnocca foram utilizados para a caracterização morfológica dos isolados. Pelo estudo molecular verificou-se que todos os isolados do Rio Grande do Sul são da espécie M. fructicola. Na caracterização morfológica, como diâmetro micelial, coloração, margem, forma e elevação das colônias e massa seca de micélio, existem variabilidade nas características analisadas dos isolados nos três meios de cultura utilizados. Na comparação entre os meios de cultura, os maiores valores de massa seca e diâmetro de colônia dos isolados foram obtidos nos meios Pagnocca e suco de pêssego.Palavras-chave: caracterização fenotípica; podridão parda; Prunus persica

Potential of microbial endophytes to enhance the resistance to postharvest diseases of fruit and vegetables

Food loss of fruit and vegetables caused by postharvest diseases is a major issue worldwide. The method used to prevent and control postharvest diseases is usually to use chemical fungicides, but long‐term and large‐scale use will make the pathogens resistant and potentially have a negative impact on human health and the ecological environment. Therefore, finding a safe and effective biological control method instead of chemical control is a hot research topic in recent years. Endophytes, colonizing plants asymptomatically, can promote the growth of the hosts and enhance their resistance. The use of endophytes as biological control agents for postharvest diseases of fruit and vegetables has attracted increasing attention in the last 20 years. Compared with chemical control, endophytes have the advantages of being more environmentally friendly, sustainable, and safer. However, there are relatively few relevant studies, so herein we summarize the available literature. This review focuses mainly on the recent progress of using endophytes to enhance the resistance of postharvest fruit and vegetables to diseases, with the emphasis on the possible mechanisms and the potential applications. Furthermore, this article suggests future areas for study using antagonistic endophytes to prevent and control fruit and vegetable postharvest diseases: (i) screening more potential broad‐spectrum anti‐pathogen endophytes and their metabolic active substances by the method of macrogenomics; (ii) elucidating the underlining molecular mechanism among endophytes, harvested vegetables and fruit, pathogens, and microbial communities; (iii) needing more application research to overcome the difficulties of commercialization practice. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry
