Production of Ag NPs was carried out using the yeasts C. laurentii and R. glutinis.
Ag NPs from both yeasts showed differences in their physicochemical properties.
Ag NPs from both yeasts showed antifungal activity against pathogens of postharvest.
Ag NPs from R. glutinis showed the major antifungal activity.
Ag NPs from R. glutinis were similarly effective than Iprodione.
