The aim of the study was a laboratory evaluation antifungal effect leaf extracts from yarrow (Achillea millefolium L.), tansy (Tanacetum vulgare sage (Salvia officinalis L.) and wormwood (Artemisia absinthium on fungi genus Fusarium, major cereal pathogens. used 5%, 10%, 20% concentrations plant extracts, evaluating their linear growth Fusarium avenaceum, F. culmorum, graminearum, sporotrichioi...

The activity of some soil organisms can significantly influence the growth plants. One more common are Collembola, which play an important role in suppressing soil-borne pathogens such as Fusarium spp. Here, Folsomia candida was taken for laboratory studies. aim study to assess whether springtails wheat and pea purpose also evaluate Collembola will reduce occurrence fungal diseases, presumably ...

Background: Fungi growing on wood cause deterioration of stored food materials or discoloration the itself, and search for new safe bioagents is recently needed. Methods: Essential oils (EOs) from aerial parts Mentha longifolia L. Citrus reticulata L., analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), were tested their antifungal activity vapor method against four common fungi, Aspergil...

The chemical composition of the essential oils from the needles of Pinus ponderosa (north american pine), P. resinosa (red pine) and P. strobus (eastern white pine) has been determined by GC/MS (FID). The essential oils from P. resinosa and P. ponderosa in comparison to P. strobus have been characterized by the higher content of beta-pinene (42.4%, 45.7% and 7.9% respectively). On the other han...
