A total of 42 yeast strains of 20 different species were tested in vitro for antagonism against 18 pathogenic B. cinerea strains. Pichia membranifaciens, P. anomala and Debaryomyces hansenii displayed the most important inhibitory effect against Botrytis strains. In small-scale trials, post-harvest application of P. membranifaciens CYC 1106 to apple wounds inhibited B. cinerea CYC 20010. Purified killer toxin from P. membranifaciens CYC 1106 inhibited B. cinerea CYC 20010. Results indicated that certain yeasts, or their toxins such us P. membranifaciens CYC 1106 killer toxin, might have potential as novel agents to control B. cinerea.engjournal article1618-0623https://doi.org/10.1016/j.micres.2004.07.001https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0944501304000667?via%3Dihubrestricted access579.64Botrytis cinereaGrey mouldKiller yeastsPost-harvest biocontrolMicrobiología (Biología)Bioquímica (Biología)2414 Microbiología2403 Bioquímica3309.90 Microbiología de Alimentos
