Microbiome Status of Cider-Apples, from Orchard to Processing, with a Special Focus on Penicillium expansum Occurrence and Patulin Contamination

Abstract: Patulin is a secondary metabolite produced primarily by the fungus Penicillium expansum, responsible for the blue mold disease on apples. It is found in apple products including apple cider when apple juice is added after fermentation. In the present study, two hundred and twenty-five cider-apples of the variety “Bedan”, cultivated in Brittany in France, were sampled from the orchard during harvesting until the storage step, right before processing. The patulin analysis on these samples reported a low contamin… Show more

“…Clinical signs include lethargy and multifocal hyperemic nodules with visible fungal growth, that is in general progressive and leads to death within 2 weeks ( Taylor et al, 1999 ). Although lethargy was an observed symptom in two olms, both in long term captivity, no zygomycosis was determined and only three fungal species were isolated: human opportunistic pathogen A. jensenii ( Zen Siqueira et al, 2016 ), plant pathogenic psychrotolerant P. expansum ( Al Riachy et al, 2021 ) and soil and plant litter associated saprophytic Trichoderma simmonsii ( Chaverri et al, 2015 ). Similar symptoms can occur in cutaneous and disseminated systemic chromomycosis, and phaeohyphomycosis ( Seyedmousavi et al, 2013 ), caused by different pigmented ascomycetous species of the genera Cladosporium , Exophiala , Fonsecaea , Ochroconis , Phialophora , Rhinocladiella and Scolecobasidium ( Juopperi et al, 2002 ; Seyedmousavi et al, 2013 ), which have been isolated from various wild and captive anurans ( Dhaliwal and Griffiths, 1963 ; Elkan and Philpot, 1973 ; Rush et al, 1974 ; Beneke, 1978 ; Miller et al, 1992 ; Seyedmousavi et al, 2013 ).…”

“…Penicillium expansum is the agent of the blue mold decay considered as the most severe postharvest fungal disease since it causes heavy losses in the transportation and storage and it produces the harmful mycotoxin patulin especially in apple fruit [27]. The use of biocontrol agents could inhibit postharvest fruit pathogens by simple antagonistic interaction.…”

“…Yeasts used in this study, were isolated from the skin of apples of the variety "Bedan", in an orchard situated in Brittany, France [27]. A screening was done with 90 isolated yeasts to evaluate their antifungal potential against Penicillium expansum.…”
