Abstract
Potato common scab is a worldwide disease mainly caused by Streptomyces scabiei. It seriously affects potato crops by decreasing tuber quality. Essential oils (EO) are natural products with recognised antimicrobial properties. In this research, the antibacterial activities of thyme, oregano, suico and mint EO against S. scabiei were analysed. Infected tubers and soil samples were used for bacterial isolation; the obtained isolates were genetically identified. The chemical composition of the EO was determined by GC-MS. The broth microdilution method was used to analyse antibacterial properties of EO. Thirty-one bacterial isolates were obtained. The isolate chosen for antibacterial assays was morpho-physiologically and genetically identified as S. scabiei. Thyme EO was mainly composed of thymol and o-cymene; suico EO of dihydrotagetone, trans-tagetone and verbenone; oregano EO of trans-sabinene hydrate, thymol and ɣ-terpinene; and mint EO of menthone and menthol. All the EO tested were effective against S. scabiei, but thyme and suico EO were the most successful, with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 0.068 g·l-1 and 0.147 g·l-1 , respectively, and a minimum bactericidal concentration of 0.137 g·l-1 and 0.147 g·l-1 , respectively. Scanning electron microscopy showed similar damage caused by both thyme and suico EO to the bacterial envelope. Total phenolic content of EO was not related to their antibacterial activity. Thyme and suico EO are effective antibacterial agents against S. scabiei, impeding bacterial viability and disturbing the bacterial cell envelope. These EO are promising tools for control of potato common scab.
