Definitions
- Novel methods and compositions are provided for the biocontrol of plant diseases by use of a biological coating that has both a protective and a curative effect for the control of postharvest decay.
- the coating includes chitosan salts, at least one antagonistic microorganism, and a softener.
- chitosan an animal-derived polymer
- Chitosan is commercially produced from chitin of arthropod exoskeletons that have been deacetylated to provide sufficient free amino groups to render the polymer readily soluble in diluted organic acids.
- Chitosan and its derivatives are known to form a semi- permeable film (Averbach, 1978), to be inhibitory to a number of pathogenic fungi (Allan and Hadwiger, 1979), and to activate a number of biological processes in plant tissues, including the stimulation of chitinases, the accumulation of phytoalexins, the synthesis of proteinase inhibitors, and increased lignification (El Ghaouth et al., 1992, a, b).
- the polycationic nature of chitosan is believed to provide the basis for its physico-chemical and biological functionality. Chitosan is regarded safe as indicated by feeding trials with domestic animals.
- chitosan controlled decay and delayed ripening of strawberry, bell pepper, tomato, and cucumber by acting as a selective barrier to gas diffusion (El Ghaouth et al., 1991).
- the control of decay by chitosan is believed to originate, in part, from its antifungal property. Indeed, in vitro studies showed that chitosan not only inhibited the radical growth of major postharvest pathogens, but also induced severe mo ⁇ hological alterations in Rhizopus stolonifer and Botrytis cinerea, as well as increased cellular leakage in both fungi, presumably by interfering with fungal plasma membranes (El Ghaouth et al., 1992 b).
- an ideal biological control agent is expected to display both a protective and curative activity comparable to that observed with synthetic fungicides.
- the present invention is directed to unique compositions that are a combination of antifungal agents with antagonistic microorganisms and a softener.
- the invention also relates to methods of preventing and curing postharvest decay of plants caused by various pathogenic fungi, by applying the compositions of the invention to plants.
- the antagonistic microorganism is a yeast in particular Candida saitoana and the antifungal agents include chitosan salts amended with CaCl 2 .
- suitable microorganisms include bacteria, for example
- the biochemical additive are chitosan salts amended with CaCl 2 or chitosan propionate amended with CaCl 2 , and a yeast, in particular Candida saitoana.
- yeast in particular Candida saitoana.
- Other suitable genera of yeast include Candida spp; Cryptococcus spp; Pichia spp; Debaryomyces spp; Bulleromyces spp; Sporobolomyces spp; and Rhodotorula spp.
- chitosan salts include chitosan acetate; chitosan sorbate; chitosan propionate; chitosan lactate; chitosan glutamate; chitosan benzoate.
- a softener is an additive that renders the yeast resistant to the adverse effects of chitosan and organic acids. Monovalent and divalent cations of Ca, Mg, Zn, or K are suitable. The softener is not considered to affect the pathogen.
- chitosan salts e.g. chitosan acetate and the biocontrol activity of antagonistic microorganisms such as the yeast C. saitoana, wherein the yeast functions against the pathogen in the presence of chitosan salts amended with CaCl 2
- antagonistic yeast C. saitoana
- chitosan salts amended CaCl 2 offers control of postharvest decay of fruit and vegetables superior to that obtained with antagonistic yeast alone or chitosan salts amended with
- Native chitosan and organic acids are known to inhibit the growth of yeasts such as Candida spp and filamentous fungi such as Botrytis cinerea, Penicillium expansum Link, and Penicillium digitatum.
- yeasts such as Candida spp and filamentous fungi such as Botrytis cinerea, Penicillium expansum Link, and Penicillium digitatum.
- C. saitoana filamentous fungi
- the combination of chitosan-organic acid with C. saitoana will adversely affect the biocontrol activity of the selected yeast.
- the combination produced improved control of pathogenic fungi.
- the combination of antagonistic yeast (C. saitoana) with chitosan salts (chitosan acetate) amended with CaCl 2 may be applied to harvested crops either before or after infection because the combination has both a protective and curative effect against major postharvest pathogens and offers a level of control of decay better than that of synthetic fungicides.
- the complexity of the mode of action displayed by the combined agents of the present invention makes the development of pathogen resistance in the target plants more difficult and presents a highly complex disease deterrent barrier.
- An aspect of the invention is a biological coating for agricultural commodities that includes, in amounts effective for biocontrol activity, chitosan salts, and at least one antagonistic microorganism effective for the biocontrol of postharvest diseases, and a softener that is, a monovalent or divalent cation, e.g. CaCl 2 .
- the effective amount of chitosan salts is from about 10 ⁇ g/ml to about 500 ⁇ g/ml, preferably about 20 ⁇ g/ml to about 250 ⁇ g/ml, more preferably about 200 ⁇ g/ml.
- the effective amount of one antagonistic microorganism is about 10 7 colony forming units to about 10 8 colony forming units; preferably about 10 8 colony forming units.
- Another aspect of the invention is a method of protecting a commodity against postharvest decay, which includes coating the surface of the commodity by spraying, dipping, or drenching with an effective amount of the biological coating.
- Fruit and plants that are targets for the methods and compositions of the present invention include pome fruit (e.g., apple, pear); stone fruit (e.g., peach, nectarine, prune); citrus fruit (e.g., orange, lemon, grapefruit, tangerine); vegetables (e.g., tomato, bell pepper, cucumber); root crops (e.g., potato, carrots); tropical fruit (e.g., mango, banana, guava, pineapple, avocado); melon fruit.
- pome fruit e.g., apple, pear
- stone fruit e.g., peach, nectarine, prune
- citrus fruit e.g., orange, lemon, grapefruit, tangerine
- vegetables e.g., tomato, bell pepper, cucumber
- root crops e.g.,
- the present invention provides a novel combination of chitosan salts with at least one microorganism that is antagonistic to postharvest pathogens, and a softener.
- Native chitosan is known to adversely affect the viability of both antagonistic yeasts and postharvest pathogens. This previous knowledge hindered the use of chitosan salts as a potential additive to biocontrol agents (such as antagonistic yeasts).
- a "softener" such as CaCl 2
- Chitosan-salt formulation that acts as a carrier for an antagonistic microorganism, with a coating that delays ripening, is inhibitory to postharvest pathogens.
- a softener such as CaCl 2
- Chitosan salts; acetate; sorbate; propionate; lactate; and glutamate amended with CaCl 2 are inhibitory to postharvest pathogens such as B. cinerea and P. expansum but show no effect on the growth of C. saitoana (Table 1).
- Apple wounds treated with a combination of C. saitoana with chitosan salts amended with CaCl 2 showed an intense colonization of the wound by C. saitoana (Table 2).
- the complexities of this combination provide a unique composition (product). While yeasts which have been found effective include Candida saitoana (C saitoana), Candida oleophila (C. oleophila), Candida sake (C sake), Candida tenius (C. tenius), Candida utilis (C. utilis), Pichia guilliermondii (P.
- guilliermondii it is well within the level of skill in the art to determine if a particular antagonistic microorganism shows the necessary resistance by combining the candidate microorganism with chitosan salts amended with CaCl 2 in culture and observing whether or not the microorganism remains viable and grows.
- the combination of chitosan salt-CaCl 2 with an antagonistic yeast (C. saitoana) offers effective control of a major postharvest rot of fruit and gives superior control over use of an antagonist or chitosan salts-CaCl 2 alone.
- the curative effect of the combination is a substantial improvement over the combination of C. saitoana with glycolchitosan or carboxymethylchitosan (U.S. Pat. No. 5,633,025).
- the combination of C. saitoana with glycolchitosan or carboxymethylchitosan provides only protection and has no effect on established infections that occur before treatment. Because infection of fruit can occur either prior to harvest or during harvesting, an ideal biological product is expected to display both a protective and curative activity comparable to that observed with synthetic fungicides.
- Currently available antagonistic microorganisms do not appear to be able to control previously-established infections and are most effective when applied prior to infection by the pathogen.
- the lack of curative activity has been identified as a major limitation of biological approaches.
- the combination of C. saitoana with chitosan salts in presence of CaCl 2 offers both a curative and protective activity against rot.
- Example 1 Preparation of Chitosan. Pathogens, and Yeast
- Chitosan was dissolved 1 : 1 (w/v) in various organic acids (acetic acid; sorbic acid; propionic acid; lactic acid; and glutamic acid).
- Ripe apples cv. Red Delicious were hand harvested at the Appalachian Fruit Research Station, Kearneysville, WV.
- chitosan salts acetate; sorbate; propionate; lactate; and glutamate
- 0.1 % chitosan salts acetate; sorbate; propionate; lactate; and glutamate
- solutions containing 0.2% maltose extract broth and 0 or 0.5% CaCl 2 were autoclaved and 100 ⁇ l of the solution was dispensed into each well.
- Each well was inoculated with approximately five hundred spores of B. cinerea and P. expansum.
- Four replicates of eight wells were used for each fungus per treatment.
- Microtiter dishes were incubated in the dark at 24 °C. Percent spore germination was determined after 24 hours by techniques known to those of skill in the art.
- the dislodged material was suspended in 10 ml of sterile water, macerated with a glass rod, vortexed, dilution-plated in triplicate on yeast-maltose agar medium, and the plates were incubated 24°C. Colonies were counted after 48 h.
- Chitosan salts amended with CaCl 2 were inhibitory to postharvest pathogens.
- a complete inhibition of spore germination of B. cinerea and P. expansum was observed with 0.1% chitosan salts (acetate; propionate; lactate; and glutamate) amended with 0.5% CaCl 2 .
- Tables 1 and 2 show that the growth of antagonistic yeast, C saitoana was not affected by chitosan salts amended with CaCl 2 .
- Example 3 Control of Decay by the Combination of Chitosan-salts and CaCl 2 with Yeast. Yeast cells from 48 h old cultures of C. saitoana were pelleted by centrifugation, resuspended in sterile distilled water, and centrifuged. Pellets were suspended in 0.1% chitosan salt (chitosan-acetate) containing 0.5% CaCl 2 and the concentration of the yeast suspension was adjusted to 10 8 CFU/ml. Apple, orange, and lemon fruit were individually wounded. To determine the protective activity of the combination, fruit wounds were first treated with one of the following treatments: yeast cell suspension; yeast cell suspension containing 0.1% chitosan-acetate and 0 or 0.5% CaCl 2 ;
- Apple wounds were inoculated with P. expansum, while orange and lemon wounds were challenge-inoculated with P. digitatum. After 24 hours of incubation at 24°C, inoculated wounds were treated with the different treatments as disclosed above. The fruit were incubated at 24°C in plastic trays at high humidity. For each treatment, 20 to 100 fruit were arranged in a randomized complete block design. Lesion diameter and percent infection were determined for each treatment after 7 days of storage and the tests were repeated twice. Results of the protective effect on decay of apple, orange, and lemon are shown in Tables 3 and 4. The combination of chitosan-acetate-CaCl 2 with C.
- saitoana was more effective in controlling decay of apple, orange, and lemon fruit (Tables 3 and 4) than either the antagonist or chitosan-acetate-CaCl 2 alone. After 14 days of storage, 23% of the lemon treated with the combination of C. saitoana with chitosan-acetate-CaCl 2 and inoculated with P. digitatum were diseased (Table 4). While 75% and 35% of the fruit treated with 0.1 % chitosan-acetate-CaCl 2 or C. saitoana and inoculated with P. digitatum were diseased. All of the control apples inoculated with P. digitatum alone were diseased.
- saitoana with chitosan-acetate-CaCl 2 was effective in controlling decay of orange.
- the level of disease control obtained with the combination was comparable to that obtained with the recommended fungicide Thiabendazole (Table 7).
- the addition of CaCl 2 renders other antagonistic yeasts besides C. saitoana such as Debaryomyces hansenii; Cryptococcus laurentii; Candida sake; Candida oleophila; Candida orientalis; Zygosaccharomyces bisporus; Dekkera bruxellensis; Dekkera naardensis; Pichia angusta resistant to native chitosan and organic acids used as solvents for chitosan (Table 8).
- Apple wounds were treated with different treatments and then challenge-inoculated with 20 ⁇ l of Penicillium expansum at 10 4 conidia per mil liter Fruit were evaluated for symptoms of decay after 7 days of storage at 24°C
- Table 8 Survival of different antagonistic yeasts in 0.1 % chitosan-acetate containing calcium chloride.
- Chitosan-acetate solutions containing CaCl 2 were inoculated with 10 s yeast cells per ml and the solutions were stored at room temperature Yeast survival was determined after 3 days The following yeasts were tested Candida orientalis, Zygosaccharomyces bisporus, Dekkera bruxellensis, Dekkera naardensis, Pichia angusta DOCUMENTS CITED
