The effect of exogenous mannitol and sorbitol on the viability of the antagonist yeast,  Debaryomyces hansenii , when exposed to oxidative and high-temperature stress was determined. Results indicated that both the 0.1 M mannitol (MT) and 0.1 M sorbitol (ST) treatments improved the tolerance of  D. hansenii  to subsequent oxidative and high-temperature stress. MT or ST cells had a significantly higher level of cell survival, elevated the gene expression of  catalase 1  ( CAT1 ) and  copper-zinc superoxide dismutase  ( SOD1 ), as well as the corresponding enzyme activity. Treated cells also exhibited a lower accumulation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), and a higher content of intracellular mannitol and sorbitol relative to non-treated, control yeast cells, when exposed to a subsequent oxidative (30 mM H 2 O 2 ) or heat (40.5°C) stress for 30 min. Additionally, MT and ST yeast exhibited a higher growth rate in kiwifruit wounds, and a greater ability to inhibit postharvest blue mold ( Penicillium expansum ) and gray mold ( Botrytis cinerea ) infections. The present study indicates that increased antioxidant response induced by mannitol and sorbitol in  D. hansenii  can enhance stress tolerance and biocontrol performance.
