Oxytetracycline Dynamics on Peach Leaves in Relation to Temperature, Sunlight, and Simulated Rain

Oxytetracycline (OTC), a member of the tetracycline antibiotics, is used as a foliar spray to control Xanthomonas arboricola pv. pruni on stone fruits and Erwinia amylovora on pome fruits. We studied the dynamics of OTC residues on attached peach (Prunus persica) leaves treated with 300 ppm active i...

520 |a Oxytetracycline (OTC), a member of the tetracycline antibiotics, is used as a foliar spray to control Xanthomonas arboricola pv. pruni on stone fruits and Erwinia amylovora on pome fruits. We studied the dynamics of OTC residues on attached peach (Prunus persica) leaves treated with 300 ppm active ingredient of an agricultural OTC in relation to temperature, natural sunlight, and simulated rain. We further evaluated the potential of three ultraviolet (UV) protectants (lignin, titanium dioxide, and oxybenzone) and one sticker-extender (Nu Film-17) to prolong OTC longevity on the leaf surface. OTC residue was determined by high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC)-UV (C18 reversed-phase column). In controlled conditions in darkness, constant temperatures up to 40°C did not affect OTC degradation on leaves. In contrast, OTC residue decreased rapidly in natural sunlight in the absence of rain, declining, on average, by 43.8, 77.8, and 92.1% within 1, 2, and 4 days after application, respectively; 7 days after application, OTC levels were near the detection limit. Use of shade fabric with 10 and 40% sunlight transmittance, simulating overcast sky, reduced OTC degradation significantly but did not extend OTC persistence beyond 7 days. Areas under the OTC residue curve, summarizing OTC dynamics during the 7-day exposure period, were negatively and significantly correlated with solar radiation and UV radiation variables, but not with temperature. UV protectants and Nu Film-17 were ineffective in improving OTC persistence in outdoor conditions. Simulated rain at 44 mm h-1 drastically (by 67.2%) lowered OTC residue after 2 min, and levels were near the detection limit after 60 min of continuous rain, regardless of whether plants were exposed to rainfall 1 or 24 h after OTC application. In artificial inoculation experiments with X. arboricola pv. pruni on attached peach leaves, OTC concentrations ≥50 ppm active ingredient (corresponding to ≥0.06 μg OTC cm-2 leaf surface) were sufficient to suppress bacterial spot development. By extrapolation from our outdoor exposure experiments, similar OTC residues following application of labeled OTC rates would be reached after less than 2 days under full sunlight, after 4 days under overcast sky, or after 2 min of a heavy rainstorm
