Fig 4. In vivo antagonistic activity of Bacillus simplex 350–3 volatiles against the growth of toxigenic fungi on infected coffee beans.

Fig 4

There was a significant growth of A. flavus (B) and A. carbonarius (D) on coffee beans in the absence of B. simplex volatile, compared to complete inhibition of fungi in A and B in the presence of bacterial volatile. BS (Bacillus simplex on tryptic soy agar); AF (coffee beans infected with Aspergillus flavus); PC (Plain coffee beans); AC (coffee beans infected with Aspergillus carbonarius); TSA (tryptic soy agar without any bacteria).
