Overview

Study demonstrates effective control of bacterial pathogens in tomatoes using plant extracts, indicating potential shifts in pest management practices.

Key Points

  • Plant extracts from P. biglobosa, T. indica, and E. globulus effectively controlled bacterial pathogens in tomatoes, reducing reliance on synthetic chemicals.
  • The highest antibacterial activity was recorded with E. globulus extracts, achieving up to 18 mm inhibition zones against key bacterial pathogens.
  • Morphological and biochemical methods were used to isolate and identify bacteria from infected tomato plants and soils.
  • Ethanolic extraction helped identify phytochemicals essential for the antibacterial properties of the selected plants.
