TLDR
This review presents the current knowledge of molecular aspects in pathogen-fruit interactions, addressing the following topics: the application of new “omics” technologies for studying these interactions; the molecular mechanisms of fungal pathogen attack; the regulation of virulence by exogenous factors; and, finally, fruit defense mechanisms.About:

Inhibitory effects of methyl thujate on mycelial growth of Botrytis cinerea and possible mechanisms
TL;DR: Methyl thujate, a monoterpenoid substance, was effective in controlling postharvest gray mold caused by Botrytis cinerea on apple fruit, during application in aqueous solution.

Production, Signaling, and Scavenging Mechanisms of Reactive Oxygen Species in Fruit-Pathogen Interactions.
TL;DR: The role of ROS in fruit defense reactions against pathogens and in fungi pathogenicity during fruit–pathogen interaction is examined and the scavenging systems determining ROS homeostasis are focused on.

TL;DR: Microarray analyses demonstrate that the loss of BcAtf1 leads to extensive transcriptional changes: apart from stress response genes, the expression of a broad set of genes, probably involved in primary metabolism, cell wall synthesis and development, is affected by Bc atf1.

Accumulation of the Mycotoxin Patulin in the Presence of Gluconic Acid Contributes to Pathogenicity of Penicillium expansum
TL;DR: It is suggested that GLA accumulation may modulate patulin synthesis as a direct precursor under dynamic pH conditions modulating the activation of the transcription factor PACC and the consequent pathogenicity factors, which contribute to host-tissue colonization by P. expansum.

Sodium bicarbonate enhances biocontrol efficacy of yeasts on fungal spoilage of pears.
TL;DR: The addition of 2% sodium bicarbonate in the suspensions of antagonistic yeast Cryptococcus laurentii or Trichosporon pullulans significantly limited spore germination and germ tube elongation of Penicillium expansum and Alternaria alternata in potato dextrose broth (PDB) medium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrogen peroxide plays a critical role in the defence response of tomato to Cladosporium fulvum
TL;DR: The results support previous suggestions for this host–pathogen system of a critical role for ROS in limiting colonization, and this appears to be partly as a signal molecule for plant defence responses.

Specific roles of enzymatic browning and lignification in apple disease resistance
TL;DR: In this article, the roles of enzymatic browning and lignification as resistance mechanisms against Penicillium expansum were investigated in "Golden Delicious" apples picked at different maturity stages.
