Abstract excerpt
Black rot, caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris, is a major disease in cauliflower, capable of reducing yield by up to 50%. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of biotic (Pseudomonas fluorescens CFLB-27) and chemical (acibenzolar-S-methyl, ASM) elicitors, individually and in integration, in enhancing defense responses in tolerant (BR-161) and susceptible (Pusa Sharad) cauliflower genotypes....
