Garduno-PizanaC. Garcia-BarreraL.J. 1200981The increasing recognition and importance of phytopathogenic
fungi, the difficulties encountered in their control and the increase
in resistance to antifungal have stimulated the search for natural alternatives.
The antifungal effects of essential oils and their compounds were investigated
on mycelial growth inhibition bioassays of Fusarium oxysporum f.
sp. gladioli. The essential oils have been used empirically. In
general, a significant antifungal effect was observed with Cinnamomum
zeylanicum, Thymus vulgaris and Syzygium aromaticum
oils which had total inhibition at 100, 150, 200, 250 and 300 ppm. Teloxys
ambrosioides, Mentha piperita and Citrus aurantifolia oils
exhibited a dose dependent inhibition on mycelial growth to increase the
dose of 100 at 300 ppm. While Allium sativum, Capsicum sp.,
Ruta chalepensis and Eucalyptus globulus oils had no antifungal
activity at different concentration tested. All compounds with the exception
of cineole had a fungicide or fungistatic effect.]]>Bang, K.H., D.W. Lee, H.M. Park and Y.H. Rhee,20006410611063Barrera-Necha, L.L., S. Bautista-Baños, H.E. Flores-Moctezuma and A.
