Effects of some angiospermic plant extracts on in vitro vegetative growth of <i>Fusarium moniliforme</i>

Abstract: Fifty five angiospermic plants were selected for evaluating the effect of their aqueous extracts on the in vitro vegetative growth of Fusarium moniliforme Sheldon. Extracts of 17 plants showed varied degrees of inhibitory effects on the test pathogen. For instance the leaf extract of Lawsonia inermis showed maximum inhibition (60.65 %) followed by roots of Asparagus racemosus (50.59 %). The possibility of using these plant extracts in seed treatment to control bakanae disease of rice is suggested. Antifungal p… Show more

“…The lowest radial mycelial growth was measured in 25% concentration of leaf extract of A. paniculata at 12 DAI 8.33 mm in ethanol as solvent and 14 mm in acetone extract. Yasmin et al [29] was first reported on antifungal properties of leaf extract of A. paniculata resulted 33.53% growth inhibition of Fusarium moniliforme. Present study also supported the findings of Yasmin et al [29] that A. paniculatamay serve as candidates of plant species for their exploitation as potent fungitoxicants for controlling Fusarium wilt of tomato.…”

“…Similarly, Jabeen et al (2008) found that seed extracts of Moringa oleifera inhibited the growth of F. solani and Rhizoctonia solani. Earlier various studies reported that plant extracts had a good potential to control various fungal diseases (Abd-El-Khair et al, 2007;Joseph et al, 2008;Yasmin et al, 2008;Mdee et al, 2009;Yanar et al, 2011;Salim, 2011). The phytochemicals derived from root, stem, leaves, fruits, flowers and seeds of medicinal plants include phenolic compounds, essential oils, proteins and antioxidants, and together they work as biocontrol agents (Cragg et al, 1996).…”

“…Thus, it is necessary to find out the plant parts which have antifungal principles against F. moniliforme. Yasmin et al (2008) evaluated fifty five plant extracts against F. moniliforme. Extracts of 17 plants showed varied degrees of inhibitory effects on the test pathogen.…”
