Cymbopogon citratus essential oil bioactivity and the induction of enzymes related to the pathogenesis of Alternaria solani on tomato plants

The objective of this work was to evaluate in vitro and in vivo the bioactivity of the essential oil of Cymbopogon citratus on the mycelial growth and sporulation of Alternaria solani, and also some biochemical and structural mechanisms of resistance induction on tomato plants. The plants were treat...
