The invention belongs to the technical field of green biological prevention and control of
plant diseases, and particularly relates to a
biopesticide based on
coumarin metabolites and application of the
biopesticide in green prevention and control of litchi downy
blight. A novel litchi downy
blight prevention and control method is developed based on
coumarin compounds, and the method passes through in-vitro bacteriostasis experiments, fresh leaf bacteriostasis experiments and comprehensive evaluation of the prevention and
control effect. According to the present invention, it is found that the three coumarins such as
Scopoletin, Esculin and Esculin can significantly inhibit the growth of
peronophythora litchii on a culture medium and a
living body leaf, and have good prevention and control effects, and the
Scopoletin and Esculin have the most significant
antibacterial effect, and can synergistically enhance the inhibition effect on
peronophythora litchii, such that the
Scopoletin, Esculin and Esculin can significantly inhibit the growth of
peronophythora litchii. The method has the advantages of
environmental protection, high efficiency, safety and economy, is suitable for large-scale application, and provides a new solution for the prevention and treatment of the litchi downy
blight.
