Antimicrobial activity and analysis phytochemical preliminary extract vegetable garlic in fungi phytopathogenic control
Journal Title: Revista Verde de Agroecologia e Desenvolvimento Sustentável - Year 2017, Vol 12, Issue 1
Abstract
The potential use of alternative methods in plant disease control are constantly studied and evaluated by several researchers worldwide with the aim of minimizing the environmental impact through the use of natural products. This study aimed to trace the preliminary phytochemical profile and check the in vitro antimicrobial activity of garlic hydroalcoholic extract in different concentrations against Bipolaris spp., Curvularia lunata and Fusarium subglutinans through the spray mechanism in the Potter Tower. It was observed in the presence of phytochemical analysis hydrolysable tannins, saponins and flavonoids. The extract possessed antimicrobial activity against all pathogenic fungi tested, especially the fungi Curvularia lunata and Fusarium subglutinans in concentrations of 40 to 50%, however, the fungus Bipolaris spp. it proved to be tougher with sensitivity only at the maximum concentration of 50%.
