Here are some suggestions by the University of Florida that provide some level of control of Bacterial Wilt (Ralstonia solanacearum).
Grow Host resistance varieties.
Graft seedling onto resistance root stock.
Application of Phosphorous Acid (Exel LG or Agri-Fos) also as a foliar.
Soil Solarization
And as RayR said use "Myco/bacterial inoculants" on plant out.
For anybody that has soil disease problems I would highly recommend growing you plants in containers whether it be the open type or SWC's (Self Watering Containers).
