Journal Title: International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences (IJCMAS) - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Nowadays wilt is a common disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum F. sp. Udum which causes great economic lose. Green plants are used as natural sources of treatment for several plant diseases, because they exhibit antimicrobial properties. They are also proved eco-friendly.
