Postharvest decay of vegetables and fruits presents a significant threat confronting sustainable food production worldwide, and in the recent times, applying synthetic fungicides has become the most popular technique of managing postharvest losses. However, there are concerns and reported proofs of hazardous impacts on consumers' health and the environment, traceable to the application of chemical treatments as preservatives on fresh produce. Physical methods, on the other hand, cause damage to fresh produce, exposing it to even more infections.

-a mycotoxigenic fungus and food safety threat-coinhabits maize kernels with . This protective endophyte produces secondary metabolites of interest, pyrrocidines A and B, which inhibit the growth of and specifically block fumonisin biosynthesis. Previous transcriptomic analyses found (FVEG_00314), a gene adjacent to the fumonisin biosynthetic gene cluster, to be induced over 4,000-fold in response to pyrrocidine challenge.

Metabolic inhibitors are known to exhibit complex interactions with antibiotics in bacteria, potentially acting as antagonists by inducing cell dormancy and promoting cell survival. However, the specific synergistic or antagonistic effects of these inhibitors depend on factors like their mechanisms of action, concentrations, and treatment timings, which require further investigation. In our study, we systematically explored the synergistic interactions of various metabolic inhibitors-such as chloramphenicol (a translation inhibitor), rifampicin (a transcription inhibitor), arsenate (an ATP production inhibitor), and thioridazine (a PMF inhibitor)-in combination with ofloxacin.
