Antifungal activity of n-tributyltin acetate against some common yam rot fungi

Abstract: The antifungal activity of n-tributyltin acetate (TBTA) was examined in relation to combating yam rot disease. TBTA exhibited a significant effect in vitro and in vivo on four yam rot fungal isolates tested. However, the in vitro toxicity of TBTA was drastically reduced when 2.5% Tween 80 was the solvent instead of 25% acetone, as indicated by the MICs of 156.0 and 5.0 ,Ig/ml, respectively.

“…The susceptibilities of the test fungal spores (Asergillus niger, Cladosporium herbarum and Fusarium moniliforme) as seeded in Dox's medium on filter paper discs (6 mm diameter) soaked with 0.5 mg/ml of each sample (dissolved in 2-propanol), were determined. 32 The soaked and completely dried filter paper discs were placed on the surface of the seeded Dox medium in triplicate tests for each sample. Plates were allowed to stand for 2 h to allow diffusion.…”

“…The susceptibilities of the tested fungi and bacteria were evaluated according to the method described by Olurinola et al . . The four tested fungi ( A. niger , C. herbarum , F. moniliformae , and F. oxysparum) as seeded in Czapek Dox agar medium and the four tested bacteria ( C. michiganensis, P. solanacearum , E. coli , and S. aureus ) as seeded in the nutrient agar mediums on filter paper discs (6 mm diameter) were soaked with 0.5 mg/ml of each sample [dissolved in dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO)].…”

“…The susceptibilities of the test fungal spores [ Fusarium oxysporum, Verticillium albo‐atrum , and Alternaria solani (A. alternata )] as seeded in Dox's medium on sterilized discs (6 mm) of different kinds of the PP polymers, were determined according to the method proposed by Olurinola et al26 The sterilized membrane discs were placed on the surface of the seeded Dox medium in triplicates. Plates were allowed to stand for 2 h to allow for the diffusion.…”
