Methods and compositions based upon natural phenolic aromatic aldehydes (ex: cinnamaldehyde, benzaldehyde) are provided, which find use as curing agents for systemic bacterial infections of living plants, in particular against Gram negative bacteria and more particularly species of Liberibacter, including Ca. Liberibacter asiaticus. The curing agent compositions described are used synergistically with other antimicrobial compounds, such as those that plants manufacture or release as a result of biotic or abiotic stresses, including the application of the subject aldehydes, certain proteins, whether produced by recombinant methods or not, nanoparticles, nanoemulsions, or by natural essential oils such as carvacrol or allicin. The aromatic aldehydes have high volatility and exhibit phytotoxicity when applied above certain amounts. Systemic infections and infestations of a variety of plant parts can be treated, including those of leaves and roots. Methods of applying the compositions for agriculture use are disclosed.
提供了基于天然酚类芳香醛(例如:肉桂醛、苯甲醛)的方法和组合物,可用作活体植物系统性细菌感染的固化剂,特别是针对革兰氏阴性细菌,尤其是自由杆菌的种类,包括Ca.asiaticus)。所述固化剂组合物可与其他抗微生物化合物协同使用,例如植物在生物或非生物胁迫下制造或释放的化合物,包括应用所述醛类、某些蛋白质(无论是否通过重组方法生产)、纳米颗粒、纳米乳液或天然精油(如香芹酚或大蒜素)。芳香醛具有高挥发性,施用超过一定量时会产生植物毒性。可以治疗多种植物部位的系统感染和侵染,包括叶片和根部的感染和侵染。此外,还公开了用于农业用途的组合物的施用方法。
