摘要
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are responsible for the antagonistic activity exerted by different biological control agents (BCAs). In this study, VOCs produced by Pseudomonas synxantha strain 117-2b were tested against two kiwifruit fungal postharvest pathogens: Cadophora luteo-olivacea and Botrytis cinerea , through in vitro and in vivo assays. In vitro results demonstrated that P. synxantha 117-2b VOCs inhibit mycelial growth of C. luteo-olivacea and B. cinerea by 56% and 42.8% after 14 and 5 days of exposition, respectively. In vivo assay demonstrated significant inhibitory effects. VOCs used as a biofumigant treatment reduced skin-pitting symptoms disease severity by 28.5% and gray mold incidence by 66.6%, with respect to the untreated control. BCA volatiles were analyzed by solid-phase microextraction coupled with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (SPME–GC/MS), and among the detected compounds, 1-butanol, 3-methyl and 1-nonene resulted as the most produced. Their efficacy as pure synthetic compounds was assayed against mycelial growth of fungal pathogens by different concentrations (0.34, 0.56, and 1.12 µL mL −1 headspace). The effect of the application of VOCs as a biofumigant was also investigated as the expression level of seven defense-related genes of kiwifruit at different exposition times. The results indicated an enhancement of the expression of almost all the genes starting from 3 h of treatment. These results described P. synxantha VOCs characteristics and their potential as a promising method to adopt for protecting kiwifruit from postharvest diseases caused by C. luteo-olivacea and B. cinerea .
