“…In this study, it was shown that H. perforatum collected from Tuiserkan contains strong anti-fungal activity. Our results are in accordance with the previous findings reported by Cantrell et al (2005), Bahraminejad et al (2011), Bahraminejad (2012 and Bahraminejad et al (2012) who found that this plant has anti-fungal activity. Cantrell et al (2005) concluded that quinoline alkaloids especially flindersine are responsible for the observed anti-fungal activity.…”

“…As some of the mentioned secondary metabolites are known as anti-microbial compounds, high content of these compounds could be the candidate for anti-microbial activity (Chan et al 2000;Oh et al 2002). Although, the anti-Pythium and anti-Phytophthora activity of the metanolic extract of P. oleracea was previously reported by Bahraminejad (2012), Bahraminejad et al (2012), it was found that the extract of P. oleracea stimulate the growth of the A. solani by 47% when compared to the control.…”

Investigation of plants containing natural anti-microbial metabolites for plant protection has been identified as a desirable method of disease control. Crude methanolic extracts of 43 plant species belonging to 27 families, which most of them are medicinal plants, mostly collected from the west of Iran were screened for anti-fungal activity against two economically important phytopathogenic fungi, Alternaria solani and Botrytis cinerea during 2010-2012. Bioassay of the extracts was conducted by agar diffusion method on agar plate cultures with five replications. Among all the 43 plant methanolic extracts, mycelia growth of A. solani and B. cinerea was reduced by 28 (65%) and 30 (70%) plant extracts when compared to the control, respectively. The strongest extracts with more than 50% inhibition against A. solani were Elaeagnus angustifolia, Dodonaea viscosa, Haplophyllum perforatum and inflorescence of Allium hirtifolium, respectively. Leaves of A. hirtifolium, H. perforatum, inflorescence of A. hirtifolium and D. viscosa showed highest inhibitory effect (≥50%) against B. cinerea. Moreover, complete inhibition of leaves of A. hirtifolium against B. cinerea was due to their fungistatic activity. The results of this experiment and high number of plants with anti-fungal activity showed that the flora in the west of Iran could be regarded as a rich source of plants with anti-fungal activity. Therefore, further screening of other plant species, identifying active fractions or metabolites and in vivo application of active extracts are warranted.

“…Numerous studies have stressed the value of plants and phytocompounds to constrain various fungal infectious agents. [53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60] Raghavendra et al assessed the extract prepared from leaf and fruit of this plant for its activity against fungi using poisoned food technique that is one of the extensive methods adopted for assessing the antifungal activity of plant extracts. In this technique, authors noticed that the diameter of the colony made by treated fungi was reduced in poisoned plates in comparison to control by plant extract.…”

In the current scenario, demand for the herbal products is growing exponentially worldwide. Herbal medicine is becoming an integral part of both traditional and modern system of medicines for the treatment of various ailments and diseases. A number of plant materials are under research for exploiting their potential medicinal values, and Ziziphus xylopyrus (Retz.) Wild. is one of them. The main phytoconstituents of this plant include quercetin, quercitrin, kaempferol, kaempferol-4'-methylether, and cyclopeptide alkaloids amphibine-H and nummularine-K, which show a variety of biomedical applications. The present review sheds light onthe botanical profile, phytoconstituents, traditional and ethnomedicinal uses as well as different pharmacological activities of Z. xylopyrus plant.

“…Later, other methods for restricting pests and diseases in farms were developed which were more compatible with environment and agro-ecosystems, and were generally referred to as biocontrol. Diverse plant extracts have been accordingly examined to identify controlling or inhibitory compounds againts plant pathogens (Montanha et al, 2004;Othman and Shoman 2004;Bahraminejad et al, 2008;Bahraminejad et al, 2012;Awasthi et al, 2013;Ghasemi and Tabein, 2013;Rasoulpour et al, 2017). However, as mentioned above, the majority of studies have been concerned with human and animal pathogens.…”

Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is a devastating plant RNA virus infecting a wide range of plants causing considerable losses to agriculture products. Various dissemination means of TMV makes it particularly difficult to control. Application of plant-derived antiviral compounds has gained attention as one of the new control measures against viral diseases. This study was conducted to examine the antiviral effects of licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra L.) crude extract (LCE) against TMV. To this end, TMV particles were purified and treated with different LCE concentrations (0.5, 1.0, 2.5 and 5.0%). Two hosts of TMV (Nicotiana glutinosa L. and N. tabacum L.) were mechanically inoculated with the LCE-treated TMV preparations and antiviral effects were assessed by measuring different disease parameters in the plants including infection rate, number of local lesion, symptom index, and virus accumulation. These parameters were significantly reduced when LCE was used to treat the TMV preparation or it was applied 24 h before TMV inoculation. An inverse relationship was found between LCE concentrations and various studied parameters. Application of LCE 24 h after TMV inoculation had no significant effect on disease parameters suggesting that LCE directly affects TMV rather than activating plant defence system. The results showed that licorice can be a promising source of novel antiviral compounds againts TMV.
