Antibacterial efficacy of γ‐mangostin against <i>Xanthomonas campestris</i> via disruption of cell morphology and virulence functions
We demonstrate for the first time that γ-mangostin exerts potent antibacterial activity by compromising cellular integrity and suppressing critical virulence functions in Xcc. These findings provide a molecular foundation for advancing γ-mangostin as a sustainable biocontrol agent against Xcc for the management of crucifer black rot disease. © 2025 Society of Chemical Industry.
