Bacteriophages disease control

Indeed a variety of interactions of polysaccharisurface charge than on detailed structure, and a much broatfcr study of the activity of polyelectrolytes and their possible application to disease control might be fruitful.

Once they get started, bacterial diseases are generally difficult to control. Pick or prune off infected plant parts as soon as you spot them. Be sure to dip pruning shears in a 10 percent bleach solution (1 part bleach to 9 parts water) between cuts. Bury the infected pieces in the center of a hot compost pile or dispose of them with household trash. Certain sprays, such as copper compounds, are partially effective, but will not control these diseases when used alone. Bacteriophages (viruses that cause disease in bacteria) may one day find more widespread use against bacterial diseases.
