ABSTRACT: In this study, it is aimmed to be determined the antimicrobial effects
of the essential oil in vitro conditions, extracted from wild forms of plant which is
known as Ferula communis and Ferula orientalis around the world and grows
naturally at Erzurum province of Turkey against Pseudomonas viridiflava isolates,
which are the agent of Soft Rot for some fruits and vegetables. For this purpose, 8
isolates of P. viridiflava which have been determined as the agent of Soft Rot in
previous studies performed in plants such as potatos, onions, pepper, tomato,
pumpkin, parsley and watermelon. As the positive control, Streptomycin antibiotics
sold as ready produce were used. According to the obtained results, the essential oil
has the antibactericidal effect of 0,9-25 mm against 8 isolates of P. viridiflava. It has
been observed that the antibiotics used as the positive control has the antibacterial
effect of 17-23 mm. In conclusion, the essential oil has the lethal effect against 8 P.
viridiflava isolates which are agents of Soft Rot. It is assesed that these essential oil
extracted from Ferula communis and Ferula orientalis can be used against these Soft
Rot pathogens.
