Evaluating the Fungal Pathogens’ Inhibition Efficiency of Composite Film Combined with Antagonistic Yeasts and Sodium Alginate on Peach
To reduce the indiscriminate use of pesticides and extend the postharvest shelf life of peach fruit (Prunus persica, cv. Baihua) from southeast China, mainly the microbial antagonism of indigenous yeasts was studied and applied in the construction of composite film. In this study, 14 yeast strains of 9 genera were screened out from the surface of peaches by isolation, purification, cultivation, and identification. Through an experimental analysis of the in vitro inhibition zone and the in vivo colonizing capacity, 1 × 108 CFU mL−1 of Candida oleophila sp-ELPY12B and Cryptococcus laurentii sp-ELPY15A proved most efficient against the major pathogens and were chosen as candidate fungicides. In combination with Na-alginate film (0.4% glycerin as the plasticizer and 0.1% Tween-80 as the emulsifier), the preservative effects of these composite-treated groups also showed the best antifungal effects, which significantly delayed the postharvest preservation period by about 6–7 d under an ambient temperature of 25 ± 3 °C and a relative humidity of 50–70%.

Evaluating the Fungal Pathogens Inhibition Efficiency of Composite Film Combined With Antagonistic Yeasts and Sodium Alginate on Peach
To reduce the indiscriminate use of pesticides and extend the postharvest shelf life of peach fruit (cv. Baihua) from southeast China, microbial antagonism of indigenous yeasts was mainly studied and applied in construction of composite film. After isolation, purification, cultivation and identification, a total of 14 yeast strains from 9 genera were screened out from the surface of peaches. By experimental analysis of in vitro inhibition zone and in vivo colonizing capacity, Candida oleophila sp-ELPY12B and Cryptococcus laurentii sp-ELPY15A, which have conservative structure of D1/D2 domain sequences and were considered as new species by phylogenetic analysis, were finally chosen as fungicides against the major pathogens. In combination of Na-alginate film (0.4 % glycerin as plasticizer and 0.1 % Tween-80 as emulsifier), the preservative effects of composite-treated groups (1 × 108 CFU mL−1 of Candida oleophila sp-ELPY12B and Cryptococcus laurentii sp-ELPY15A) showed best antifungal effects, which significantly delayed the postharvest preservation period about 6 - 7 d under ambient temperature of 25 ± 3°C and relative humidity of 50 - 70%.
