Zusammenfassung:A specific growth inhibitor of Pseudomonas solanacearum, 3-indolepropionic acid, was tested for its effect on bacterial wilt of tomato in a hydroponic culture system. The compound had no apparent adverse effect on tomato plants at concentrations below 10μg/ml and completely protected tomato plants from wilting at 5-10μg/ml in the presence of 108cfu/ml of the pathogen. The compound was found to be glucosylated in tomato plants, suggesting that it could be used as a control agent of bacterial wilt for large scale hydroponic tomato culture.
