Bacterial wilt, the Glossary
Bacterial wilt is a complex of diseases that occur in plants such as Cucurbitaceae and Solanaceae (tomato, common bean, etc.) and are caused by the pathogens Erwinia tracheiphila, a gram-negative bacterium, or Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens pv. flaccumfaciens, a gram-positive bacterium.[1]

Bacterial wilt of carnation
Bacterial wilt of carnations is a bacterial disease caused by the plant pathogen Paraburkholderia caryophylli (often referred to as Burkholderia caryophylli). Bacterial wilt and bacterial wilt of carnation are Eudicot diseases.

Frass
Frass refers loosely to the more or less solid excreta of insects, and to certain other related matter.
Gourd
Gourds include the fruits of some flowering plant species in the family Cucurbitaceae, particularly Cucurbita and Lagenaria.
Gram-negative bacteria
Gram-negative bacteria are bacteria that unlike gram-positive bacteria do not retain the crystal violet stain used in the Gram staining method of bacterial differentiation.
See Bacterial wilt and Gram-negative bacteria
Gram-positive bacteria
In bacteriology, gram-positive bacteria are bacteria that give a positive result in the Gram stain test, which is traditionally used to quickly classify bacteria into two broad categories according to their type of cell wall.
See Bacterial wilt and Gram-positive bacteria
Insecticide
Insecticides are pesticides used to kill insects.

Pest control
Pest control is the regulation or management of a species defined as a pest; such as any animal, plant or fungus that impacts adversely on human activities or environment.
