“…The yeasts in such studies included the genera Debaryomyces (Santos et al 2004), Kloeckera (McLaughlin et al 1992, Sporothrix (Hajlaoui and Bèlanger 1993), Saccharomyces, Zygosaccharomyces (Suzzi et al 1995), Sporobolomyces (Janisiewicz et al 1994;Filonow 1998), Metschnikowia (Karabulut et al 2004), Tilletiopsis (Ng et al 1997), Rhodotorula Sansone et al 2005), Cryptococcus (Anderson et al 1997;Lima et al 1998), Aureobasidium (Castoria et al 2001;Ippolito et al 2005), Pichia (Masih and Paul 2002;Santos et al 2004), andCandida (McLaughlin et al 1992;Gamagae et al 2004).…”

“…Many of the antibiosis studies involve either pairing of colonies on agar plates using different solid substrates and measuring inhibition zones (Suzzi et al 1995;Walker et al 1995;Spadaro et al 2002), screening of the culture filtrates for inhibition of vegetative growth and spore germination of fungal pathogens in vitro, or utilizing artificially wounded fruits (Spadaro et al 2002) or leaves (Masih et al 2001) coinoculated with the antagonists and the pathogens. Suzzi et al (1995) reported that natural wine yeasts belonging to Saccharomyces and Zygosaccharomyces inhibited in vitro growth of soil-borne fungal plant pathogens including Rhizoctonia fragariae, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, and Macrophomina phaseolina.…”

Potential of yeasts as biocontrol agents of soil-borne fungal plant pathogens and as plant growth promoters

Among soil microorganisms, yeasts have received little attention as biocontrol agents of soil-borne fungal plant pathogens in comparison to bacterial, actinomycetes, and filamentous fungal antagonists. The mechanisms of action of potential antagonism by yeasts in relation to soilborne fungal plant pathogens are expected to be similar to those involved with pathogens of aerial parts of the plant, including leaves and fruits. Several taxa of yeasts have been recorded as endophytes in plants, with a small proportion recorded to promote plant growth. The ability of certain taxa of yeasts to multiply rapidly, to produce antibiotics and cell wall-degrading enzymes, to induce resistance of host tissues, and to produce plant growth regulators indicates the potential to exploit them as biocontrol agents and plant growth promoters. More than ten genera of yeasts have been used to control postharvest diseases, especially of fruits. Suppression of classes of fungal pathogens of fruits and foliage that are similar to those associated with soilborne fungal root pathogens, strongly suggests that yeasts also have potential for the biological control of diseases caused by soil-borne fungal plant pathogens, as is evident in reports of certain yeasts in suppressing some soil-borne fungal plant pathogens. This review explores the potential of soil yeasts to suppress a wider range of soil-borne fungal plant pathogens and to promote plant growth.

“…Some yeast species, in particular Pichia guilliermondii and P. anomala, inhibit the growth of certain moulds attacking fruits during postharvest storage (Wisniewski and Wilson 1992;Suzzi et al 1995). Conversely, a large number of mycelial fungi can attack yeasts.…”

Environmental Factors Influencing Yeasts

Yeasts are ubiquitous microorganisms that form part of the microbiota of most if not all natural ecosystems. A wide variety of yeast species occur in soil, fresh water and marine water, they are normal inhabitants on plants, are commonly associated with animals, and are also found frequently in man-made habitats such as foods. The conditions prevailing in these natural and artificial habitats determine the metabolic activity, growth and survival of yeasts. A variety of abiotic and biotic factors influence the life of yeasts, and exert stress conditions which the cells must withstand and adapt to or otherwise they die. Death of individual cells may not bring about the extinction of a whole population as there is a large variation in resistance to stress factors among cells. Also, these factors change with time and show spatial heterogeneity; their effect is manifested differently in microenvironments. So, when looking at the environmental relations of yeasts, we should deal with a very complex interrelation of factors that are only partially understood. Nevertheless, basic knowledge of these is important for understanding the ecology and biodiversity of yeasts as well as to control the environmental factors in order to enhance the exploitation of yeasts or to inhibit or stop their harmful and deleterious activity.In this chapter our current knowledge of the environmental relations of yeasts is summarized. First, the most relevant physical, chemical and biotic factors and their interactions are described in a changing environment. Further on, responses of yeast cells to stress conditions are discussed at single cell and population level. In-depth treatment of the genetic background of variation, and the mechanism of adaptation to stress factors would be beyond the limits of this chapter. Further chapters in this book are devoted to their discussion. Reference is made to relevant literature and to the large amount of data covered and summarized in previous works and reviews
