Widespread plant metabolite shows potential for combating bacterial diseases in crops

Bacterial pathogens, such as those causing rice bacterial blight, tomato bacterial wilt, and kiwifruit bacterial canker, pose significant threats to global agriculture. However, effective pesticides to control these diseases are scarce, with copper-based bactericides and antibiotics offering limited efficacy and posing environmental risks. Bacterial pathogens, such as those causing rice bacterial blight, tomato bacterial wilt, and kiwifruit bacterial canker, pose significant threats to global agriculture.
