EVALUATION OF ANTI-FUNGAL POTENTIAL OF AQUEOUS EXTRACT OF SYZYGIUM CUMINI Linn. AGAINST Alternaria alternata Nees. AND Fusarium oxysporum Schle
نویسندگان
چکیده
Experiments were carried out to evaluate the antifungal potential of aqueous extracts of leaves, bark, seeds and fruits of Syzygium cumini against two important fungal plant pathogens, Alternaria alternata and Fusarium oxysporum. Results revealed that among various plant parts, aqueous extract of fruit was most effective against the growth of F. oxysporum as compared to other extracts whereas, the aqueous extract of bark showed potential to inhibit the growth of A. alternata. Leaves extract were not found much effective against the both test organisms.

By incorporating both majorization theory and stochastic dominance theory, this paper presents a general theory and a unifying framework for determining the diversification preferences of risk-averse investors and conditions under which they would unanimously judge a particular asset to be superior. In particular, we develop a theory for comparing the preferences of different convex combination...

BACKGROUND Adjuvants are used to increase the immunogenicity of new generation vaccines, especially those based on recombinant proteins. Despite immunostimulatory properties, the use of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) as an adjuvant has been hampered due to its toxicity and pyrogenicity. Brucella abortus LPS is less toxic and has no pyrogenic properties compared to LPS from other gram negati...
