Efficacy of Postharvest Application of Aureobasidium pullulans to Control White Haze on Apples and Effect on the Fruit Mycobiome

Articolo
Data di Pubblicazione:

Abstract:
White haze, an emerging disorder caused by extensive fungal growth on the apple surface, results in a compromised fruit quality and decreased marketability. The use of biological control agents could be an interesting tool to reduce its development. This work aimed to test the efficacy of two Aureobasidium pullulans strains (AP2 and PL5) in controlling white haze on stored apples. An in vivo trial was conducted by inoculating fruits with white haze causal agents (Entyloma belangeri, Golubevia pallescens, Tilletiopsis washingtonensis) and treating them with the antagonistic yeasts. Three commercial biofungicides were also included in the trial. Both A. pullulans strains, along with the Metschnikowia fructicola-based product, reduced white haze incidence after 110 days of storage at 1 ± 1 °C and after 7 days of shelf life. Furthermore, the effect of A. pullulans application on the fruit fungal microbiome was assessed. A significant impact of apple matrix and treatment on the mycobiome composition was observed. Analyses showed a good colonization of A. pullulans on the treated apples, both epiphytically and endophytically. A decrease in white haze-related fungi abundance was observed in the treated fruits. Additionally, a reduction of Ramularia spp. and modifications in the abundance of other fungal genera were detected after storage and shelf life.
