The investigation was carried out to determine the possible phyto components from the chloroform: methanol (1:1v/v) extracts of Portieria hornemanii. This study was investigated by analyzing the potent bioactive compounds in the chloroform extract of P.hornemanii using GC-MS analysis. The crude 50µg/ml of white crystalline solid were tested invitro for their antibacterial effect against Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri & Xanthomonas campestris pv.malvalearum using paper disc diffusion technique showing 10.00 mm & 12.00 zone inhibition respective, Whereas Streptomycin Sulphate showed 15.00 mm zone & inhibition. The analysis revealed that P.hornemanii a white crystalline solid mainly 1,2 – benzene dicarboxylic acid, diisoctyl ester (C24 H38 O4) (48.21%) and 1,2 – Benzene dicarboxylic acid, bis (2-methyl propyl) ester (C6 H22 O4) (19.67%). The antibacterial potential of the compound has to be isolated for further structural elucidation and for bio control use to agricultural community.
