Satureja montana and Mentha pulegium essential oils' antimicrobial properties against Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae and elicitor potential through the modulation of kiwifruit hormonal defenses.

Summary

Essential oils from Mentha pulegium and Satureja montana were tested for their ability to combat kiwifruit bacterial canker. S. montana oil was found to be the most effective, boosting defense hormone levels and reducing infection levels. However, more research is needed to understand how it works and if it can be a long-term solution.
