t0“Preservative effects of clove extract against Alternaria alternata on postharvest strawberries”
e3“The MFC of clove extract against A. alternata was 30 mg/mL, which reduced spore survival rate to 40.0% and increased cell membrane permeability”
e5“The abundance of spoilage microorganisms (e.g., Alternaria , Pantoea) decreased, while beneficial bacteria (e.g., Bacillus ) increased in the treatment group”

Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation The minimum fungicidal concentration of clove extract against A. alternata was 30 mg/mL
- Intervention effect Clove extract at the MFC reduced spore survival rate of A. alternata to 40.0%
- Intervention effect Clove extract at the MFC increased cell membrane permeability of A. alternata
- Intervention effect After 8 days of storage, treated strawberries had 68.3% higher firmness than the control
- Intervention effect After 8 days of storage, treated strawberries had 52.5% higher VC content than the control
- Intervention effect After 8 days of storage, treated strawberries had 46.4% lower weight loss rate than the control
- Intervention effect In treated strawberries the abundance of beneficial bacteria, including Bacillus, increased
- Mechanism Clove extract preserves strawberries by directly damaging the cell membrane of A. alternata
- Mechanism Clove extract reshapes the fruit surface microbial community of strawberries
- Recommendation Clove extract is proposed as a green alternative for postharvest preservation of strawberries
