“…Many researchers have identified the main pathogenic microorganisms responsible for fresh goji berry postharvest disease, including Alternaria sp., Cladosporium sp., Fusarium sp., and Fiobasidium sp. [ 3 , 4 ]. A decrease in the epicuticular wax content of ripe to overripe fruits may promote the exudation of nutrient composition, which stimulate the superficial development of fungi in berries [ 5 ].…”

Fresh goji (Lycium barbarum L.) berries were treated with high-concentration (50% and 90%) oxygen shocking for 30 min and then stored at 0 ± 0.5 °C for 30 d. Decay, aerobic plate count, firmness, weight loss, total soluble solid (TSS), and titratable acidity (TA) were evaluated during storage. A total of 90% O2 shocking more effectively reduced decay and maintained the weight loss and firmness of goji berries. Subsequently, changes in fungi communities were analyzed using high-throughput sequencing (HTS) in the 90% O2-shocking and control groups. The results showed that 90% O2 shocking retained the richness and diversity of fungi communities and the microbiome was related to the quality properties of the fruit. Thus, we inferred that high oxygen shocking inhibited the development of natural decay and maintained the satisfying quality of goji berries by affecting the fungi community composition, which reduced the growth of pathogenic fungi and harmful saprotrophic fungi in the genera, such as Filobasidium sp., Alternaria sp., and Cladosporium sp. We provide a new insight into the disease development and quality changes during the storage of postharvest goji berries.

“…Altering the microbial diversity on the surface of fruits can effectively reduce the risk of postharvest deterioration and pathogenic contamination [ 4 , 9 ]. The microbiome of fruits are affected by many other factors, such as climate, cultivation, single fruit differences, and treatment methods [ 20 ].…”

The efficiency and influencing factors during PAH‐polluted soil remediation by dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) low‐temperature plasma technology are investigated in this study. Gas chromatography, microbial community structure analysis, and response surface analysis were used to optimize suitable remediation processing factors. The degradation rates of phenanthrene and benzo[a]pyrene reached 94.37% and 86.53%, respectively, at an initial concentration of 100.00 mg/kg, whereas optimal parameters for the system were identified as 130 V for voltage, 160 Hz for frequency, 0.60 L/min for gas flow rate, and 40 min for discharge time. Comprehensively, DBD plasma is an efficient, low‐energy, and sustainable remediation technology according to the energy consumption calculation and comparison with the relevant literature.
