  "abstract": "<p>Kahramanmaras region is suitable for pome fruits, vine and pepper cultivation. This study was conducted to evaluate the antibacterial effects of 6 different commercial essential oil (thyme, mint, cinnamon, clove, orange and ginger) and 3 different commercial tannin (Artutan, Artutan K and Farmatan) extracts against several isolates of different plant pathogenic bacterial species (<em>Rhizobium&nbsp;</em>spp. (syn.<em>&nbsp;Agrobacterium</em>),&nbsp;<em>Xanthomonas</em>&nbsp;spp. and&nbsp;<em>Erwinia amylovora</em>) by using disc diffusion method. Minimum Inhibitory Concentrations (MICs) was determined by using broth micro-dilution method for plant extracts which caused &gt; 5 mm inhibition zones. Thyme and cinnamon essential oils were determined as the most effective essential oils but ginger essential oil was the least effective oil determined. The activity of essential oils also varied statistically according to bacterial species tested. The most susceptible isolate was determined&nbsp;<em>Rhizobium</em>&nbsp;spp. CU5-4/6 and the most resistant isolates were&nbsp;<em>Xanthomonas</em>&nbsp;spp. MB7-5 and MB6-3.&nbsp;<em>Xanthomonas</em>&nbsp;spp. isolates were found to be more resistant to essential oils than&nbsp;<em>Rhizobium</em>&nbsp;spp. and&nbsp;<em>E. amylovora</em>&nbsp;isolates. MIC value of mint and thyme essential oils against&nbsp;<em>Rhizobium</em>&nbsp;spp. isolates varied between 10-20 &micro;l/ml; thyme 10 &micro;l/ml for&nbsp;<em>Xanthomonas</em>&nbsp;spp. isolates and mint 20 &micro;l / ml for&nbsp;<em>Xanthomonas</em>&nbsp;spp. MB6-6 isolate. MIC value of cinnamon essential oils against&nbsp;<em>Rhizobium</em>&nbsp;spp. isolates CU5-4/6 and CU5-4/10 was determined as 20-40 &micro;l/ml. Clove essential oil caused inhibition at 10 &micro;l/ml against&nbsp;<em>Xanthomonas</em> spp. isolates. Our results clearly shown that plant extracts may be used as an alternative control method in sustainable and organic farming against pathogens.</p>",
