Fungal volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by Trichoderma species interact with a plant host and display multifaceted mechanisms. In this study, we investigated the antifungal activity of VOCs emitted by Trichoderma asperelloides PSU-P1 against fungal pathogens, as well as the ability of VOCs to activate defense responses and to promote plant growth in Arabidopsis thaliana. The strain’s VOCs had remarkable antifungal activity against fungal pathogens, with an inhibition range of 15.92–84.95% in a volatile antifungal bioassay. The VOCs of T. asperelloides PSU-P1 promoted the plant growth of A. thaliana, thereby increasing the fresh weight, root length, and chlorophyll content in the VOC-treated A. thaliana relative to those of the control. High expression levels of the chitinase (CHI) and β-1,3-glucanase (GLU) genes were found in the VOC-treated A. thaliana by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The VOC-treated A. thaliana had higher defense-related enzyme (peroxidase (POD)) and cell wall-degrading enzyme (chitinase and β-1,3-glucanase) activity than in the control. The headspace VOCs produced by PSU-P1, trapped with solid phase microextraction, and tentatively identified by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry, included 2-methyl-1-butanol, 2-pentylfuran, acetic acid, and 6-pentyl-2H-pyran-2-one (6-PP). The results suggest that T. asperelloides PSU-P1 emits VOCs responsible for antifungal activity, for promoting plant growth, and for inducing defense responses in A. thaliana.

“…The appearance of the green calyx is an important characteristic that influences purchasing decisions. After harvesting, the calyx of mangosteen turned brown and shrive very fast, which was caused by water loss and chlorophyll degradation (Kaewsuksaeng et al, 2019). This study found that the calyx of mangosteen in the control treatment turned dark brown within 10 days of storage at 13ºC.…”

Methyl bromide fumigation aims to control insect infestation in mangosteen fruit before export which leads to reduce the fruit quality. Thus, the objective of this study was to control the quality of methyl bromide fumigated mangosteen using integrated postharvest technology. Fruit were prepared by fumigating with 32 g m-3 for 2 hours, washed with tap water, surfaced disinfestation with sodium hypochlorite. The prepared fruit samples were divided to treat with different methods as follows; 1) fruit were coated with ethanolic shellac-modified coconut oil (ES-MCO) and then packed in low density polyethylene (LDPE) bag containing ethylene inhibitor (1-MCP sachet), 2) fruit were coated with ES-MCO and packed in LDPE bag, 3) fruit were treated with ES-MCO and packed in nylon net bag, and 4) fruit were non-coated and packed in nylon net bag (control). All fruit samples were kept at 13ºC for 20 days (as the shipment stimulation) and then transferred to 25ºC for 2 days (as the shelf-life stimulation). The results revealed that after 15 days of storage fruit were treated with ES-MCO + LDPE bag + 1-MCP sachet showed the highest reduction of fruit rot disease and this treatment helped to delay the drying and browning of mangosteen calyx, chlorophyll degradation of the calyx, and reduce weight loss, the respiration rate and ethylene production. However after storage for 20 days, the pericarp of mangosteen in fruit treated with ES-MCO + LDPE bag + 1-MCP sachet became hard, and its shelf-life was 15 days.

“…For instance, Salaemae et al [19] applied EAWPs to prolong the postharvest quality of Namwa banana (Musa × paradisiaca). Kaewsuksaeng et al [32] demonstrated in relation to the postharvest quality of mangosteen that application of EAWPs delayed the degradation of chlorophyll (Chl) and the activity of Chl-degrading enzymes in the calyx. EAWP treatment has been shown to maintain the color, chlorophyll content and firmness of asparagus [21].…”

The postharvest quality of muskmelon can be affected by fruit rot caused by the fungus Fusarium incarnatum, resulting in loss of quality. The utilization of electrostatic atomized water particles (EAWPs) in agriculture applications has been shown to induce disease resistance in plants. Therefore, in this study, we determined the effect of electrostatic atomized water particles (EAWPs) on the disease resistance of muskmelon fruits against postharvest fruit rot caused by F. incarnatum. EAWPs were applied to muskmelon fruits for 0, 30, 60, and 90 min. EAWP-treated muskmelon fruits were inoculated with F. incarnatum, and disease progress was measured. Quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) of the chitinase (CmCHI) and β-1,3-glucanase (CmGLU) genes of Cucumis melo (muskmelon) was performed for EAWP-treated and -untreated muskmelon fruits. The activities of cell-wall-degrading enzymes (CWDEs), chitinase, and β-1,3-glucanase were also assayed in EAWP-treated and -untreated muskmelon fruits. The results showed that disease progress was limited by EAWP treatment for 30 min prior to pathogen inoculation. Muskmelon fruits treated with EAWPs for 30 min showed an upregulation of CWDE genes, CmCHI and CmGLU, as observed by qRT-PCR, leading to high chitinase and β-1,3-glucanase activities, as observed through enzyme assays. The results of SEM microscopy revealed that the effect of the crude enzymes of EAWP-treated muskmelon caused morphological changes in F. incarnatum mycelia. Furthermore, treatment with EAWPs preserved postharvest quality in muskmelon, including with regard to texture stiffness and total chlorophyll contents, compared to untreated muskmelon. These results demonstrate that the pretreatment of muskmelon with EAWPs suppresses the development of F. incarnatum in the early stage of infection by regulating gene expression of CWDEs and elevating the activities of CWDEs, while also maintaining postharvest muskmelon quality.
