三种拮抗酵母菌对苹果采后青霉病的抑制效果

从苹果果实上分离获得的50余种酵母菌中筛选出了能够有效地抑制苹果青霉病（Peniclium expansum Link)的丝孢酵母（Trichosporon pullulans(Lindner.)Diddens and Lodder)。罗伦隐球酵母（Cryptococcus laurentii(Kuffer.)skin-ner)和粘红酵母（Rhodotorula glutinis(Fresen.)F.C.Harrison)。其中,抑病效果最好的T.pullulans是一种用于采后果实生物防治的新型拮抗菌,研究了这三种拮抗菌不同浓度处理和外加营养物质以及与钙配合使用对苹果青霉病的抑病效果。实验结果表明;酵母菌浓度越高,抑病作用越强;外源营养物质的加入削弱了酵母菌的拮抗效果;在C.laurentii的细胞悬浮液中加入0.18mol/L的CaCl2能显著提高其抑病能力。但增加CaCl2对T.pullulans和R.glutinis的抑病效果却没有明显作用。     

田间应用拮抗酵母菌对甜樱桃果实采后病害的防治效果

研究了应用拮抗酵母菌丝孢酵母(Trichosporon pullulans(Lindner.)Diddens et Lodder)、罗伦隐球酵母(Cryptococcus laurentii(Kuffer.)Skinner)和粘红酵母(Rhodotorula glutinis(Fresenius)Harrison)后拮抗菌在果实表面的繁殖能力以及对不同贮藏条件下甜樱桃(Pranus avivum L.cv.Hongdeng)果实采后病害的防治效果.酵母菌的使用浓度为1×108CFU/mL.结果表明,田间3种拮抗菌都能够在果实表面增值,但是只有C.laurentii和R.glutinis能够持续稳定地生长.C.laurentii的抑病效果最好,它对田间环境和采后低温低氧及高CO2都具有很强的适应能力.

研究了应用拮抗酵母菌丝孢酵母(Trichosporon pullulans(Lindner.)Diddens et Lodder)、罗伦隐球酵母(Cryptococcus laurentii(Kuffer.)Skinner)和粘红酵母(Rhodotorula glutinis(Fresenius)Harrison)后拮抗菌在果实表面的繁殖能力以及对不同贮藏条件下甜樱桃(Pranus avivum L.cv.Hongdeng)果实采后病害的防治效果。酵母菌的使用浓度为1×10~8CFU/mL。结果表明,田间3种拮抗菌都能够在果实表面增值,但是只有C.laurentii和R.glutinis能够持续稳定地生长。C.laurentii的抑病效果最好,它对田间环境和采后低温低氧及高CO_2都具有很强的适应能力。     

丝孢酵母与钙与杀菌剂配合对苹果采后病害的抑制效果

研究一种从桃果实上分离获得的拮抗菌－丝孢酵母（Trichosporon sp.)对苹果（Malus domestica Borkh.)采后病害的防治效果,包括接种不同浓度的拮抗菌与不同病菌之间的拮抗作用,以及拮抗菌与钙或与杀菌剂配合对苹果灰霉病和青霉病的抑制效果。结果表明,拮抗菌和病菌孢子的浓度都明显地影响其抑菌效果。拮抗菌的使用浓度越大,病菌孢子的接种浓度越低,其抑病效果越好。当丝孢酵母菌的使用浓度达到1068colony-forming units(CFU)mL时,可完全抑制接种在苹果上的灰霉菌（Botrytis cinerea Pers.)和青霉菌（Penicillium expansum(Link)Thom)的抑制效果明显地好于单独使用相同剂量的拮抗菌或杀菌剂。因丝孢酵母的悬液液中加入1％－2％CaCl2可显地提高拮抗菌对灰霉病和青霉病的抑制效果。

Activity of the Yeasts Cryptococcus laurentii and Rhodotorula glutinis Against Post-harvest Rots on Different Fruits

More than 200 yeasts were selectively isolated from microbial populations on the surface of different fruits. Fifty of these isolates were tested against blue mould ( Penicillium expansum ) on wounded apples. Isolates LS-11 of Rhodotorula glutinis and LS-28 of Cryptococcus laurentii were the most effective antagonists. They were further evaluated at 20IC on different fruits (apples, pears, strawberries, kiwi fruits and table grapes) against several of the main post-harvest pathogens ( Botrytis cinerea, Penicillium expansum, Rhizopus stolonifer and Aspergillus niger ) and at 4IC on apples inoculated with P. expansum . At 20IC the antagonists significantly reduced rot incidence and showed a wide range of activity on different hostpathogen combinations; isolate LS-28 exhibited a higher and more stable activity than LS-11. Both yeasts were also effective against P. expansum in cold storage conditions. Populations of the two yeasts were assessed on wounded and unwounded surfaces of apples kept at both 20 and 4IC. At either temperature, isolate LS-28 reached greater densities in wounded tissues than LS-11, but had a lower ability to colonize unwounded apple skin. The two yeasts were able to grow in culture at temperatures ranging from 0 to 35IC. In assays performed in vitro at 24IC, the antagonists showed low sensitivity towards several fungicides commonly applied on fruits and vegetables.     

Enhancement of biocontrol activity of yeasts by adding sodium bicarbonate or ammonium molybdate to control postharvest disease of jujube fruits

AIMS: To assess the potential of sodium bicarbonate and ammonium molybdate as additives in enhancing the biocontrol efficacy of Rhodotorula glutinis and Cryptococcus laurentii against blue mould in jujube fruits. METHODS AND RESULTS: Two yeasts at a concentration of 107 CFU ml-1, in combination with 238 mmol l-1 sodium bicarbonate or 15 mmol l-1 ammonium molybdate, showed a significant inhibition effect on blue mould of jujube fruits stored at 20 degrees C for 5 days. The colonizing ability of the yeasts in wounded sites was significantly decreased in the presence of ammonium molybdate. CONCLUSIONS: Combining R. glutinis or C. laurentii with sodium bicarbonate or ammonium molybdate provided a more effective control of postharvest disease than using the antagonistic yeasts or the chemicals alone. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The addition of sodium bicarbonate or ammonium molybdate reduced the number of antagonists required to efficiently control disease of postharvest fruits, which could result in the reduction of costs.     

Effects of Trichosporon sp. in Combination with Calcium and Fungicide on Biocontrol of Postharvest Diseases in Apple Fruits

The capability of yeast Trichosporon sp., an antagonist isolated from peach fruit, in biological control was evaluated in apple ( Malus domestica Borkh. cv. Fuji) fruits, when inoculated with different concentrations of Botrytis cinerea Pers. and Penicillium expansum (Link) Thom, as well as in combination with calcium and fungicide. The concentrations of the yeast cells and pathogen spores obviously influenced disease incidence and lesion development in apples. There was a significant negative correlation between concentrations of the yeast cells and infectivity of the pathogens. When the yeast cell suspensions reached the concentration of 108 colony-forming units (CFU)/mL, there was no infection caused by B. cinerea and P. expansum with spore concentrations below 106 spores/mL in apple fruits. The yeast at concentrations of 106-107 CFU/mL in combination with fungicide (iprodione at 50 μL/L) provided control of decay caused by B. cinerea and P．expansum better than separate application. Effect of controlling gray mould and blue mould rots was enhanced when Trichosporon sp., even at low concentration of 105 CFU/mL, was applied in the presence of 1%-2% CaCl2 in an aqueous suspension.     

Effect of intracellular trehalose in Cryptococcus laurentii and exogenous lyoprotectants on its viability and biocontrol efficacy on Penicillium expansum in apple fruit

AIMS: To improve viability and biocontrol efficacy of Cryptococcus laurentii after freeze drying and in subsequent storage. METHODS AND RESULTS: Viability of C. laurentii was improved after freeze drying and in subsequent storage at 4 or 25 degrees C by using skimmed milk (SM) and sugars (glucose, galactose, sucrose and trehalose) as protectants. Sugars and SM mixed together showed better protection than when they were used separately. Citric acid used as carbon source could induce accumulation of intracellular trehalose in the yeast. The yeast cells with high trehalose level (HT cells) had higher viability than those with low trehalose level (LT cells) after freeze drying and storage for 90 days. After storage for 90 days at 4 degrees C, the HT cells plus SM and sugars as protectant showed a similar biocontrol effect against blue mould rot in apple fruit caused by Penicillium expansum as fresh cells. CONCLUSIONS: Increasing intracellular trehalose content of C. laurentii and adding exogenous protectant (sugars + SM) could improve its viability and maintain its biocontrol efficacy. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The results have a potential value for commercial application of C. laurentii.     

Yeast diversity in a mesotrophic lake on the karstic plateau of Lagoa Santa,MG-Brazil

The yeast diversity in a paleo-karstic lake of the Lagoa Santa plateau was studied during March 1986–March 1987. Water samples were collected monthly at five stations and the yeasts were isolated at 25 °C on Sabourad dextrose agar supplemented with 0.5% of yeast extract and 10 mg% of chloramphenicol. August and February showed the highest numbers of isolates, coinciding, respectively with the beginning and the ending of stratification. Of 56 isolated species, Aureobasidium pullulans, Candida famata, Cryptococcus albidus, Cryptococcus laurentii, Rhodotorula glutinis, Rhodotorula rubra and Trichosporon cutaneum occurred at the highest frequencies. A. pullulans showed greatest prevalence during the dry period (winter), whereas C. famata, Cr. albidus, Cr. laurentii and Rh. rubra were prevalent during the rainy season (summer). Tr. cutaneum was distributed between July and November. Most isolates yeasts are associated with plants and soils, and are important in decomposition of aquatic macrophytes. Furthermore, a possible role of these species as indicators of pollution is discussed.     

Presence of pathogenic yeasts in the feces of the semi-domesticated pigeon (Columba livia, Gmelin 1789, urban type) from the city of Turin

The results of a survey on the presence of pathogenic yeasts in pigeon droppings collected in Turin, are shown. The study was carried out in 8 densely populated areas, where human-animal contact is highest. A total of 427 pigeon dropping samples, most of which fresh, were collected. 550 yeast colonies, clinically interesting or at least pathologically significant, were isolated by the identification routine methods. The yeasts belong to the following species: Candida albicans, C. humicola, C. krusei, C. guillermondii, C. lypolitica, C. lambica, C. parapsilosis, C. tropicalis, C. rugosa, C. zeylanoides, Cryptococcus albidus, C. laurentii, C. neoformans, Hansenula anomala, Geotrichum sp., Kloekera apiculata, Rhodotorula glutinis, R. rubra, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Torulopsis candida, T. glabrata, Trichosporon beigelii, T. capitatum, T. cutaneum, T. pullulans.     

Effects of a biocontrol agent and methyl jasmonate on postharvest diseases of peach fruit and the possible mechanisms involved

AIMS: To investigate effects of application of 200 micromol l(-1) methyl jasmonate [MeJA (200)] and Cryptococcus laurentii alone or in combination against postharvest diseases (Monilinia fructicola and Penicillium expansum) in peach fruit stored at 25 and 0 degrees C, and to evaluate the possible mechanisms involved. METHODS AND RESULTS: The efficacy of controlling postharvest diseases by resistance induced in peach fruit treated with MeJA (200) and C. laurentii alone or in combination and the relationship between activities of defence-related enzymes in peach fruit and lesions caused by M. fructicola and P. expansum were examined. At the same time, the effects of MeJA (200) on the population of C. laurentii in the peach wounds and on the mycelial growth of M. fructicola and P. expansumin vitro were investigated. The results indicated that treatment of peach fruit with C. laurentii at 1 x 10(8) CFU ml(-1) alone, or combining C. laurentii at 5 x 10(7) CFU ml(-1) with MeJA (200) all resulted in a lower lesion diameter of brown rot and blue mould caused by M. fructicola and P. expansum compared with the controls in peach fruit. MeJA (200) enhanced the population of C. laurentii, and inhibited mycelial growth of P. expansum. However, it had a little effect on M. fructicolain vitro. MeJA and C. laurentii alone or in combination induced higher activities of Chitinase, beta-1,3-glucanase, phenylalanine ammonia-lyase and peroxidase (POD) than applying the yeast alone at both 25 and 0 degrees C. CONCLUSIONS: MeJA (200) not only directly inhibited mycelial spread of postharvest pathogens, but also increased population of C. laurentii, which induced stronger disease resistance in fruit than MeJA or yeast alone, and resulted in a lower lesion diameter of brown rot and blue mould caused by M. fructicola and P. expansum. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: MeJA (200) in combination with C. laurentii was beneficial for controlling brown rot and blue mould caused by M. fructicola and P. expansum in peach fruit. The inhibitory mechanism was mainly because of resistance induced in peach fruit by MeJA and C. laurentii. In addition, direct inhibition of MeJA on P. expansum also played a role in controlling blue mould.     

The distribution of pyrophosphatidic acid in nature.

The occurrence of a novel phospholipid, pyrophosphatidic acid, in the lipid extracts of yeasts (23 species), bacteria (E. coli), algae (chlorella), mammalia (human, rabbit, guinea pig, and mouse), insect (cockroach), fish (carp), mollusc (clam), and spermatophyta (spinach) was investigated. Pyrophosphatidic acid was found exclusively in the lipid extracts of several kinds of yeast species, but not in other normal living species (animals, plants, and microorganisms) so far investigated. All of the yeast species containing this lipid belong to the asporogenous yeasts (Cryptococcus neoformans CBS-132, Cryptococcus laurentii Z 6-5, Rhodotorula glutinis H 3-9-1, Rhodotorula rubra AY-2, Kloeckera apiculata KK-3, and Trichosporon cutaneum KC 4-3), and ballistosporogenous yeast (Sporobolomyces salmonicolor WF 174). In contrast, no detectable amount of pyrophosphatidic acid was found in the cellular lipids of ascosporogenous yeasts.
