dc.description.abstractFood biodeterioration due to the activity of stored grain insect pests, microbes, and associated metabolites is one of the major problems associated with food security, especially in tropical and subtropical countries, where the climatic condition is favorable to the growth and proliferation of a range of deteriorating agents. The cumulative effects of deteriorating agents may impose undesirable changes in organoleptic properties (odor, flavor, and taste), nutritional composition, and adverse effects on the overall quality of food products and make them unsafe and unpalatable. The application of most of the currently used physical and chemical methods is under scrutiny due to their prolonged adverse effects on health, sensory properties of food products, and the emergence of resistant pests and microbes. Therefore nowadays the industries are looking toward cost-effective and ecofriendly approaches for the management of food-biodeterioration agents. This chapter presents an overview of food biodeterioration agents, significant postharvest losses, and effective control strategies using ecofriendly approaches to secure the availability of safe food for the overgrowing population. In addition, special emphasis has been given to the possible practical application of natural products exhibiting strong insecticidal and antimicrobial agents using bioinformatics approaches. Further the future prospects for commercial application of plant chemicals and their current hurdles have been discussed to extend the shelf-life of food commodities and safeguard the agro-ecosystems. � 2023 Elsevier Inc.
