I put salt on a cut-from-the-top apple for a week non-refrigerated, and if you press down on the top after a week, it feels like the skin of a drum. The salt takes away the moisture in the fruit, leaving it, well, moisture-less.

Salt will "stop rot" because in order for bacteria to grow, some type of liquid is needed. The salt absorbs the liquid so that bacteria can not grow on the apple.
