“…() used Candida oleophila for inducing resistance of grapefruit against Penicillium digitatum ; Wilson & Chalutz () conducted a study with over 100 isolates against P. digitatum and Penicillium italicum on citrus fruits; and Arras, Cicco, Arru, and Lima () tested the antagonistic ability of 19 isolates against P. italicum on artificially wounded citrus fruits and verified that Pichia guilliermondii reduced the infection in 98%. Decay control of citrus fruits was also reported with the use of W. anomala (Aloui et al., ; Platania et al., ), Pantoea agglomerans (Teixidó et al., ; Torres et al., , ), Kloeckera apiculata (Liu, Luo, & Long, ; Long, Deng, & Deng, ; Long, Wu, & Deng, ), Pichia membranaefaciens (Luo, Zhou, & Zeng, ; Zhou, Ming, Deng, & Zeng, ), and D. hansenii (Chalutz & Wilson, ; Hernández‐Montiel, Ochoa, Troyo‐Diéguez, & Larralde‐Corona, ; Taqarort et al., ), among others. Also, pome fruits are suitable for biocontrol strategies, with numerous works reporting successful approaches.…”

Edible films and coatings have been extensively studied in recent years due to their unique properties and advantages over more traditional conservation techniques. Edible films and coatings improve shelf life and food quality, by providing a protective barrier against physical and mechanical damage, and by creating a controlled atmosphere and acting as a semipermeable barrier for gases, vapor, and water. Edible films and coatings are produced using naturally derived materials, such as polysaccharides, proteins, and lipids, or a mixture of these materials. These films and coatings also offer the possibility of incorporating different functional ingredients such as nutraceuticals, antioxidants, antimicrobials, flavoring, and coloring agents. Films and coatings are also able to incorporate living microorganisms. In the last decade, several works reported the incorporation of bacteria to confer probiotic or antimicrobial properties to these films and coatings. The incorporation of probiotic bacteria in films and coatings allows them to reach the consumers' gut in adequate amounts to confer health benefits to the host, thus creating an added value to the food product. Also, other microorganisms, either bacteria or yeast, can be incorporated into edible films in a biocontrol approach to extend the shelf life of food products. The incorporation of yeasts in films and coatings has been suggested primarily for the control of the postharvest disease. This work provides a comprehensive review of the use of edible films and coatings for the incorporation of living microorganisms, aiming at the biopreservation and probiotic ability of food products.

“…For example, Kloeckera apiculata (K.A) can inhibit the growth of green and blue mold on citrus fruit and protect against fungal pathogen attack (McLaughlin et al, 1992;Long et al, 2005Long et al, , 2007. Several mechanisms for their effects have been proposed, including successful mycoparasitism and competition for nutrients (Long & Gao, 2009;Liu et al, 2013). The ability to form biofilms has been proposed as an effective mechanism of action in some biological control yeasts (Giobbe et al, 2007;Fiori et al, 2008;Bojsen et al, 2012;Vero et al, 2013).…”

Phenylethanol promotes adhesion and biofilm formation of the antagonistic yeastKloeckera apiculatafor the control of blue mold on citrus

The yeast Kloeckera apiculata strain 34-9 is an antagonist with biological control activity against postharvest diseases of citrus fruit. In a previous study it was demonstrated that K. apiculata produced the aromatic alcohol phenylethanol. In the present study, we found that K. apiculata was able to form biofilm on citrus fruit and embed in an extracellular matrix, which created a mechanical barrier interposed between the wound surface and pathogen. As a quorum-sensing molecule, phenylethanol can promote the formation of filaments by K. apiculata in potato dextrose agar medium, whereas on the citrus fruit, the antagonist remains as yeast after being treated with the same concentration of phenylethanol. It only induced K. apiculata to adhere and form biofilm. Following genome-wide computational and experimental identification of the possible genes associated with K. apiculata adhesion, we identified nine genes possibly involved in triggering yeast adhesion. Six of these genes were significantly induced after phenylethanol stress treatment. This study provides a new model system of the biology of the antagonist-pathogen interactions that occur in the antagonistic yeast K. apiculata for the control of blue mold on citrus caused by Penicillium italicum.

“…1, item 2). For example, Kloeckera apiculata strain 34-9, isolated for its biocontrol effectiveness against Penicillium italicum, competes with the phytopathogen for nutrients and vitamins, inhibiting conidial germination of the pathogen albeit it is not able to kill the spores (Liu et al 2013). Bencheqroun et al (2007) provided in vitro and in situ evidence for nutrient competition in apple (mainly amino acids), as the most important mechanism of biocontrol activity of Aureobasidium pullulans strain Ach1-1 against Penicillium expansum on harvested apple fruits.…”

Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are free-living bacteria able to colonize roots and soil around them that have a positive effect on plant growth, development, and health. One of the mechanisms by which PGPR exert a beneficial effect involves the capacity to control growth of deleterious organisms diminishing or preventing their negative effects on plant health and growth. Pathogen biocontrol implicates diverse features of bacteria; one of them is the antagonism that excludes pathogen due to the ability of some bacteria to colonize faster and more effectively a niche, reducing nutrient availability for the deleterious organism. Also some bacteria produce antibiotics, organic compounds that are lethal in low concentration for growth and metabolic activities of other microorganisms. Finally, the ability of bacteria to elicit a defense response in plant, called induced systemic resistance (IRS), involves the induction of synthesis of defense metabolites, but without causing a disease itself, enhancing the plant's defensive capacity. This chapter analyzed and discussed PGPR as biocontrol agent and the possibility to use them as ecological alternative to the use of agrochemicals, since they have been proved in different plant species in order to diminish the damage of pathogen and to reduce losses in crops.
