The application discloses an enzymatic
Gleditsia japonica saponin-
copper chelate, a preparation method thereof and application thereof in the prevention and treatment of
citrus canker, and belongs to the technical field of
crop prevention and treatment. The
Gleditsia japonica saponin is extracted, purified and degraded by an
enzyme method, CuSO4*5H2O is added to perform a
chelation reaction, and the enzymatic
Gleditsia japonica saponin-
copper chelate is obtained. The initial
contact angle of the
aqueous solution of the chelate on citrus leaves is small, the
aqueous solution can rapidly wet and spread on the leaves, the deposition effect is good, the chelate has excellent leaf adhesion and anti-washing capacity, the enzymatic Gleditsia japonica saponin-
copper chelate has excellent inhibitory activity on
Xanthomonas axonopodis, can be used as a green, environmentally-friendly, safe and efficient bactericide, and has excellent application potential in the prevention and treatment of
citrus canker.
