Reduced Bacterial Wilt in Tomato Plants by Bactericidal Peroxyacetic Acid Mixture Treatment

Résumé fourni par la source

Peroxyacetic acid mixture Perosan, composed of peroxyacetic acid, hydrogen peroxide and acetic acid, was evaluated for eco-friendly management of tomato bacterial wilt by Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum.Perosan drastically suppressed in vitro growth of R. pseudosolanacearum in liquid cultures in dose-and incubation time-dependent manners.Higher perosan doses (0.1 and 1%) caused lowered pH and phytotoxicity to detached leaves of two tomato cultivars Cupirang and Benekia 220 in aqueous solution.Treatment with 0.01% of Perosan delayed wilting symptom significantly in the detached leaves of two cultivars inoculated with R. pseudosolanacearum (10 7 cfu/ml).Soil drenching of 5% Perosan solution in pots caused severe tissue collapse of tomato seedlings at the four-week-old stage of two tomato cultivars.Treatment with 1% Perosan by soildrenching significantly reduced bacterial wilt in the tomato seedlings of two cultivars.These findings suggest that Perosan treatment can be applied to suppress bacterial wilt during tomato production.
