Novel Mandelic Acid Derivatives Containing 1,3,4-Oxadiazolyl Thioether for Enhancing Antibacterial Potential against Ralstonia solanacearum.
Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum causes severe crop losses, yet effective agrochemicals remain scarce. Here, we designed a T3SS-targeting antivirulence agent that attenuates the pathogen virulence without inhibiting growth. Two series of mandelic acid and 2-amino-2-phenylacetic acid derivatives containin...
