- Intervention effect Four candidates of Clonostachys rosea reduced N. ditissima DNA by 90–99% in apple branches.
- Intervention effect One candidate of Akanthomyces muscarius reduced N. ditissima DNA by more than 90% in apple branches, with small bark cracks and small swollen bark.
- Intervention effect One candidate of Cladosporium europaeum reduced N. ditissima DNA by more than 90% in apple branches, with small bark cracks and small swollen bark.
- Observation The 520 candidates isolated from apple branches belonged to 44 taxonomic groups.
- Observation Alternaria spp. was the most abundant group among the 520 candidates (22.2%).
- Observation Aureobasidium pullulans (16.1%) was also among the most abundant groups, with Cladosporium spp. and Fusarium spp. likewise listed.
- Observation A total of 252 candidates fulfilled the established criteria.
- Method / resource The systematic stepwise screening approach was a powerful strategy for finding new MBCAs against N. ditissima.
