Thyme Oil Reduces Biofilm Formation and Impairs Virulence of Xanthomonas oryzae

Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), a common bacterial plant pathogen regulates its virulence and biofilm formation attribute via a chemical method of communication. Disabling this mechanism offers a promising alternative to reduce the virulence and pathogencity of the microorganism. In this study,...
