The antibacterial activity of twenty plants samples was assessed against Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae, a causal organism of bacterial canker of peach. The combined extracts of seed of Dedonia viscosa and petal extracts of Lantana camera showed a strong enhancement in antibacterial action over the individual extracts. Other plants such as Acacia arabicae, Lantana macrophylae and Mimosa hamata also showed the inhibitory effect against the test bacteria.
