Abstract
An investigation was undertaken to identify new antagoinstic microorganisms, on the surface of fruits and vegetables, against post harvest pathogens. Washings from apple, orange, banana, lemon, avocado, date, kiwi fruit, cucumber, cauliflower, and broccoli surface were placed in fresh apple wounds and subsequently challenged with Botrytis cinerea and Penicillium expansum. Subsequently, individual isolations were made from frequently occurring microbial colonies in wounds where rot didn't develop. Three of these yeast isolates (SE-243, SE-244, SE-245) obtained from cucumber, date, and avocado proved to be potentially effective antagonists against post harvest pathogens. Those isolates were identified as Candida oleophila (SE 244) Montrocher and Candida guiliemondii (Castellani) Langerson and Guerra (SE-243 and SE-245).
