Relevance of the transcription factor PdSte12 in Penicillium digitatum conidiation and virulence during citrus fruit infection
(Elsevier B.V., 2016)Green mould, resulting from Penicillium digitatum, is the most important postharvest disease of citrus. In a previous study, the PdSte12 transcription factor gene was identified, and disruption mutants were obtained. In ... -
Suppression of Botrytis cinerea on necrotic grapevine tissues by early season applications of natural products and biological control agents
(Wiley, 2014)BACKGROUND: Necrotic tissues within grape (Vitisvinifera) bunches represent an important source of Botrytiscinerea inoculum for Botrytis bunch rot (BBR) at harvest in vineyards. This research quantified the incidence of ... -
Survival of the biological control agent Candida sake CPA-1 on grapes under the influence of abiotic factors
(The Society for Applied Microbiology, 2014)AIMS: As reliability of preharvest applications of biological control agents (BCAs) to control fruit pathogens is highly dependent on the survival of the selected organism, this study aimed to describe the population ... -
The effect of frozen storage on the phenolic compounds of Morus nigra L. (black mulberry) and Morus alba L. (white mulberry) fruit
(Cirad / EDP Sciences, 2015-03-01)Morus nigra L. (black mulberry) and Morus alba L. (white mulberry) display high concentrations of health-promoting compounds, particularly phenolics. However, no published studies have addressed the changes in the content ... -
The effects of sous-vide cooking parameters on texture and cell wall modifications in two apple cultivars: A response surface methodology approach
(SAGE Publications, 2017)This work aimed at evaluating the effects of sous-vide cooking parameters, such as time and temperature and their interactions, on textural attributes of 'Mondial Gala' and 'Granny Smith' apple cultivars. For this, different ... -
Ultrasound assisted extraction of polysaccharides from mushroom by-products
(Elsevier Ltd, 2017)The effect of ultrasound technology to extract the water soluble polysaccharides from dried and milled by-products generated from Agaricus Bisporus production was studied. Amounts of β-glucan 1.01 and 0.98 g/100 g dry mass ... -
Unravelling the contribution of the Penicillium expansum PeSte12 transcription factor to virulence during apple fruit infection
(Elsevier, 2018)Blue mould disease caused by Penicillium expansum infection is one of the most important diseases of pome fruit accounting for important economic losses. In the present study, the PeSte12 transcription factor gene was ... -
Variation in the impact of stem scar and cuticle on water loss in highbush blueberry fruit argue for the use of water permeance as a selection criterion in breeding
(Elsevier, 2017)The role of fruit scar on water loss from fresh harvested, fully blue highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) fruit was studied on three germplasm lines from each of three half-sib families at University of Talca, ...
