Electric current as control method of Pseudomonas solanocearum infestation of Musa sapientum.

Annotation

The study uses 170VAC electric current with the different time exposures to the twelve samples of Pseudomonas solanocearum which infected the banana plants to test the effectiveness of the electric current and to determine which time exposure inhabited by 100 percent the growth of Pseudomonas solanocearum. The results show that sixty seconds and ninety seconds treatment with 170VAC electric current are the most effective, thus causing 100 percent inhabitation of growth of Pseudomonas solanocearum after twenty-four, forty-eight and seventy-two hours incubation.
