[Objectives] This paper aims to explore the possibility to intercrop garlic with pomegranate tree to control pomegranate wilt. [Methods] Root exudates of garlic is cultivated in 1/5 concentration of MS solution and distilled water is examined in lab to test their effect to growth of mycelia of pomegranate wilt pathogen (Ceratocystis fimbriata) and multiplication of Bacillus subtilis. [Results] The result shows that garlic root exudates whatever cultivated in MS solution or distilled water could not inhibit or promote mycelia growth of C. fimbriata. However, garlic root exudates cultivated in both methods effectively promote multiplication of B. subtilis. [Conclusions]It is suggested that intercropping garlic with pomegranate tree by combining application B. subtilis could be a promising way to prevent pomegranate wilt spread in practice.
