Our aim was to study the volatilome, conidial production, ergosterol and FB1 biosynthesis in maize cultures over a 30‐day incubation period (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 days post inoculation [DPI]). The effect of pure VOCs on the same parameters was then evaluated to study their potential role as biocontrol agents.RESULTSIn total, 91 VOCs were detected, with volatile profiles being more similar between 5 and 10 DPI compared with 15, 20, 25 and 30 DPI. Ergosterol content increased steadily with incubation time, and three growth stages were identified: a lag phase (0 to 15 DPI), an exponential phase (15 to 20 DPI) and a stationary phase (20 to 30 DPI). The maximum concentration of FB1 was detected at 25 (0.030 μg FB1/μg ergosterol) and 30 DPI (0.037 μg FB1/μg ergosterol), whereas conidial production showed a maximum value at 15 DPI (4.3 ± 0.2 × 105 conidia/μg ergosterol). Regarding pure VOCs, minimal inhibitory concentration values ranged from 0.3 mm for 4‐hexen‐3‐one to 7.4 mm for 2‐undecanone. Pure VOCs reduced radial growth, conidial production and ergosterol and FB1 biosynthesis.CONCLUSIONSThe marked resemblance between VOC profiles at 5 and 10 DPI suggests that they could act as early indicators of fungal contamination, particularly 4‐ethylguaiacol, 4‐ethyl‐2‐methoxyanisole, heptanol and heptyl acetate. On the other hand, their role as inhibitors of fungal growth and FB1 biosynthesis prove their great potential as safer alternatives to control phytopathogenic fungi. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry. 10.1002/ps.8439 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor |
