Eggplant Disease

Question

I have a small garden and am growing Japanese vegetables for years. My question is about eggplant. My eggplants have been suffering Bacterial Wilt and Verticillum Wilt last 3 years. I have been rotating the eggplant growing place best I can do, but the garden is too small.

1) Do you know any disease resident verities of eggplants? Or can you suggest which eggplants are resistant?
2) Can I buy any grafting eggplant in USA?
3) Do you know seeds of eggplant rootstock? Or where can I purchase them in USA?
4) Are herbicides effective for the eggplant diseases Bacterial Wilt and Verticillum Wilt?
