Overview

Research reveals in vitro antifungal activity of Azadirachta indica extract against Fusarium, suggesting a viable alternative to synthetic fungicides.

Key Points

  • A. indica extract exhibits significant fungicidal properties against Fusarium sp., reducing mycelial growth by up to 35%.
  • Phytochemical analysis identified eight major compounds, including caffeic acid 4-O-glucoside and quercetin 3-O-glucoside.
  • Mineral assessment showed potassium as the dominant mineral component (4%) in the ethanolic extract.
  • Evaluation used the poisoned medium technique with concentrations of 1 to 5 mL/200 mL, highlighting potential for organic agriculture.
