Abstrakt: Erwinia carotovora is a major cause of potato tuber infection, which results in disastrous failures of this important food crop. There is currently no effective antibiotic treatment against E. carotovora. Recently we reported antibacterial assays of wound tissue extracts from four potato cultivars that exhibit a gradient of russeting character, finding the highest potency against this pathogen for a polar extract from the tissue formed immediately after wounding by an Atlantic cultivar. In the current investigation, antibacterial activity-guided fractions of this extract were analyzed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) utilizing a quadrupole-time-of-flight (QTOF) mass spectrometer. The most active chemical compounds identified against E. carotovora were: 6-O-nonyl glucitol, Lyratol C, n-[2-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)] ethyldecanamide, α-chaconine and α-solanine. Interactions among the three compounds, ferulic acid, feruloyl putrescine, and α-chaconine, representing metabolite classes upregulated during initial stages of wound healing, were also evaluated, offering possible explanations for the burst in antibacterial activity after tuber wounding and a chemical rationale for the temporal resistance phenomenon.
