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.

Role of the Alternaria Alternata Blue-Light Receptor LreA (White-Collar 1) in Spore Formation and Secondary Metabolism
Sonja Pruß,Ramona Fetzner,Kristin Seither,Andreas Herr,Erika Pfeiffer,Manfred Metzler,Christopher B. Lawrence,Reinhard Fischer +7 more
TL;DR: It is found that mycotoxin production and spore formation are regulated by light in opposite ways, and A. alternata ΔlreA was still able to partially respond to blue light, indicating the action of another blue-light receptor system.

Application of genomic and quantitative genetic tools to identify candidate resistance genes for brown rot resistance in peach.
Pedro J. Martínez-García,Dan E. Parfitt,Richard M. Bostock,Jonathan Fresnedo-Ramírez,Alejandra Vázquez-Lobo,Ebenezer A. Ogundiwin,Thomas M. Gradziel,Carlos H. Crisosto +7 more
TL;DR: The availability of a complete peach genome assembly and three different peach genome sequences created by the group provide new opportunities for application of genomic data and can improve the power of the classical Quantitative Trait Loci approaches to identify candidate genes for peach disease resistance.

Functional analysis of CLPT1, a Rab/GTPase required for protein secretion and pathogenesis in the plant fungal pathogen Colletotrichum lindemuthianum
TL;DR: Cytological analysis revealed that CLPT1(N123I) strains accumulated intracellular aggregates only on pectin, resulting from the fusion of vesicles containing polysaccharides or glycoproteins, and showed a severe reduction of pathogenesis and were unable to penetrate the host cells.

Pathogenic Penicillium spp. on apple and pear
TL;DR: This study investigates pathogenicity and aggressiveness of selected Penicillium spp. previously isolated from South African and European Union fruit export chains, finding P. digitatum was the most aggressive on 'Beurre Bosc', ' beurre Hardy', and 'Sempre' ('Rosemarie') pear cultivars and the third mostaggressive on Granny Smith and Cripps Pink apple cultivars.

Transcriptomic Profiling of Apple in Response to Inoculation with a Pathogen (Penicillium expansum) and a Non-pathogen (Penicillium digitatum)

TL;DR: The hypothesis that apples respond in a complex and diverse manner to the compatible compared to the non-host pathogen is supported, which provides further evidence that apples inoculated with P. expansum exhibit significant upregulation of defense-related genes and genes involved in detoxification of reactive oxygen species.
