  "abstract": "Green mold (Penicillium spp.) is a major postharvest disease of grapefruit. Optimal concentrations of bamboo vinegar (BV) and Cryptococcus laurentii were screened in vitro, and their individual and combined efficacy evaluated. BV (1%, 121 °C-sterilized) plus 1 × 10⁷ CFU mL⁻¹ C. laurentii (BV-C. laurentii) significantly inhibited spore germination and germ tube elongation in Penicillium spp., disrupted P. digitatum hyphal cell wall and membrane integrity, and increased extracellular chitinase and β-1,3-glucanase activities by 1.05- and 1.22-fold over C. laurentii alone at 48 h while reducing malondialdehyde and reduced glutathione. BV-C. laurentii also activated fruit innate defense, with phenylalanine ammonia-lyase and polyphenol oxidase activities 1.03-1.44-fold higher than CK and total phenol and flavonoid contents 20.22% and 19.73% higher on day 28, without adversely affecting total soluble solids, titratable acidity, ascorbic acid or reducing sugar. Thus, BV-C. laurentii effectively controls green mold and delays quality deterioration in grapefruit.",
