Cellular Responses and Targets in Food Spoilage Yeasts Exposed to Antifungal Prenylated Isoflavonoids Open
Preservatives, such as sorbic acid and benzoic acid, inhibit the growth of undesirable yeast and molds in foods. Unfortunately, preservative tolerance and resistance in food spoilage yeast, such as Zygosaccharomyces parabailii , is a growi…

The Influence of Heteroresistance on Minimum Inhibitory Concentration, Investigated Using Weak-Acid Stress in Food Spoilage Yeasts Open
Food spoilage by fungi is a leading cause of food waste, with specialized food spoilage yeasts capable of growth at preservative concentrations above the legal limit, in part due to heteroresistance allowing small subpopulations of cells t…

The influence of heteroresistance on minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), investigated using weak-acid stress in food spoilage yeasts Open
Populations of microbial cells may resist environmental stress by maintaining a high population-median resistance (IC 50 ) or, potentially, a high variability in resistance between individual cells (heteroresistance); where heteroresistanc…

Impact on Arabidopsis growth and stress resistance of depleting the Maf1 repressor of RNA polymerase III Open
Maf1 is a transcription factor that is conserved in sequence and structure between yeasts, animals and plants. Its principal molecular function is also well conserved, being to bind and repress RNA polymerase (pol) III, thereby inhibiting …

Evolving challenges and strategies for fungal control in the food supply chain Open
Fungi that spoil foods or infect crops can have major socioeconomic impacts, posing threats to food security. The strategies needed to manage these fungi are evolving, given the growing incidence of fungicide resistance, tightening regulat…
