Abstract:Orange wax (OW) is a waxy waste generated in the essential oil purification process (winterization). It has no commercial value. It is discarded or burnt, polluting the environment. The present study demonstrates the possibility of applying it to control phytopathogens. The ethanol‐soluble bioactive compounds of OW were identified and quantified. The effect of orange wax extracts on the growth inhibition of phytopathogenic fungi (Fusarium oxysporum and Colletotrichum gloeosporioides) and Spodoptera frugiperda … Show more
