One hundred twenty-five yeast strains isolated from table grapes and apples were evaluated
for the control Botrytis cinerea of in vitro and in vivo. Ten strains were selected for their ability …

The objective of this study was to identify grapevine epiphytic yeasts and bacteria for
biocontrol of Botrytis cinerea on grapes. Antagonistic yeasts and bacteria were isolated from …

Biocontrol activities of different yeast species and strains isolated from grape/must/wine

Botrytis cinerea Pers., the causal agent of gray mold, infects more than 200 plant species.
This pathogen has traditionally been controlled by fungicides. However, with the increasing …

Background: Botrytis cinerea (B. cinerea) is responsible for grape infection and damage to
the winemaking and table grape sectors. Although anti-Botrytis chemicals are available, they …

Previous experiments showed that seven bacteria identified as Acinetobacter lwoffii (PTA-
