Experimental study demonstrates rhamnolipid biosurfactant inhibition of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides in Capsicum chinense, highlighting its utility for crop protection.
The king chilli, Capsicum chinense var.Jacq is a chilli variant well-known as one of the world's hottest chillies.It is also well-reported to have various biomedical prospects.To control one of the major fungal pathogen, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides of this economically important chilli variety, rhamnolipid biosurfactant treatment was carried out.Bacterial strain Pseudomonas aeruginosa SR17 was employed to produce rhamnolipid biosurfactant using glycerol as the carbon source.The rhamnolipid exhibited inhibition against the tested fungal pathogen in both lab-scale and in-planta investigations.Rhamnolipid showed promising result in post harvest management of king chilli fruits.It also aided in general welfare of the host plant.
