Pseudomonas protegens volatile organic compounds inhibited brown rot of postharvest peach fruit by repressing the pathogenesis-related genes in Monilinia fructicola.

Endophyte bacteria Pseudomonas protegens QNF1 VOCs inhibit Monilinia fructicola, reducing brown rot on peach fruits by 98.76%. This offers a natural alternative to chemical control, potentially saving the peach industry money and improving fruit quality.
