“…Hernandez et al [91] used a purified polyphenolic extract of orange peel (Citrus × sinensis L.) at different concentrations for 8 days to stop the growth of M. fructicola and reported fungicidal activity attributable to ferulic acid (Table 2). In another study, Pazolini et al [98] obtained aqueous extracts of rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) and Indian mustard (Brassica juncea L.) and also investigated their biological activity on M. fructicola. The growth of the mycelium of M. fructicola and the germination of the conidia were reduced on average by 95 and 31%, respectively.…”

Phytopathogenic fungi are responsible for diseases in commercially important crops and cause major supply problems in the global food chain. Plants were able to protect themselves from disease before humans played an active role in protecting plants. They are known to synthesize a variety of secondary metabolites (SMs), such as terpenes, alkaloids, and phenolic compounds, which can be extracted using conventional and unconventional techniques to formulate biofungicides; plant extracts have antifungal activity and various mechanisms of action against these organisms. In addition, they are considered non-phytotoxic and potentially effective in disease control. They are a sustainable and economically viable alternative for use in agriculture, which is why biofungicides are increasingly recognized as an attractive option to solve the problems caused by synthetic fungicides. Currently, organic farming continues to grow, highlighting the importance of developing environmentally friendly alternatives for crop production. This review provides a compilation of the literature on biosynthesis, mechanisms of action of secondary metabolites against phytopathogens, extraction techniques and formulation of biofungicides, biological activity of plant extracts on phytopathogenic fungi, regulation, advantages, disadvantages and an overview of the current use of biofungicides in agriculture.

“…Among the alternative treatments to chemical products, plant extracts have received growing attention due to their potential antimicrobial properties [6]. Several studies have demonstrated that plant extracts constitute a rich source of bioactive chemicals such as phytosterines, saponines, phenolic compounds, alkaloids, volatile compounds, glucosinolates, quinons, tannins, sterols [7,8].…”
