Abstract:Antibacterial activities of different doses of turpentine oil extracted from Pinus slyvestris L. (Ps) grown in Antalya, Turkey, were investigated in vitro against economically important bacterial and fungal plant pathogens. The highest dose, 300 µg/ml, of turpentine oil was the most effective antibacterial dose. Turpentine oil showed a significant antibacterial effect on Erwinia amylovora (Ea), Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. vesicatoria (Xav), Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc), Ralstonia solanacearum (Rs), Pectobacterium carotovorum pv. carotovorum (Pcc), Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis (Cmm), Rhizobium tumefaciens (Rt), Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae (Pss), Pseudomonas corrugata (Pc), Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst), Rhizobium vitis (Rv), Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. savastanoi (Pssav) and Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola (Psp), respectively. The highest dose, 200 µg/ml, of turpentine oil was the most effective antifungal dose. The oil showed a significant antifungal effect on Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Fusarium lycopersici., Botrytis cinerae, Phytophythora capsici, Alternaria solani, Pythium sp., respectively. Antifungal effect of turpentine oil was lowest against Rhizoctonia solani. The main compenents of turpentine oil were 41.35% α-pinene, 19.20% β-pinene,7.3% camphene and 6.82% α-longifolene determined by GC-MSD (Gas Chromatoraphy Mass Selective Detector). This is the first report on antibacterial and antifungal effects of turpentine oil against plant bacterial and fungal pathogens.
