tailieunhanh - Antifungal activity of plant extracts against post-harvest fungal pathogens

Extracts of certain plants have been used to control the plant diseases since several years. Here we report in-vitro studies to examine the antifungal activity of aqueous leaf extractsof three plants and neem oil against three post-harvest fungal pathogens viz., Rhizopus arrhizus, Sclerotium rolfsii, Fusarium solani. Among the leaf extracts, Duranta erecta showed maximum antifungal activity against the pathogens, followed by Lasonia inermis, Neem oil, and Cocculus hirsutus. The degree of inhibition increased correspondingly with increasing concentrations of the plant of inhibitions was high at 20% concentration than 10% concentration, except S. rolfsii treated with 10% neem oil. Highest growth inhibitions was recorded in S. rolfsii treated with D. erecta. | Antifungal activity of plant extracts against post-harvest fungal pathogens
