Screening of medicinal plants extracts to control growth of opportunistic fungus (aspergillus flavus)

The aim of this study is to evaluate the fungicidal property of Alstonia scholaris, Argemone maxicana and Datura alba. For this purpose effect of different alcoholic extract concentrations were observed on growth performances of Aspergillus flavus on 5th and 7th day. Result shows that alcoholic extract concentrations inhibit radial growth of this fungus. Result also indicates that inhibition of fungal growth increase with the increase in the concentration of alcoholic extracts.
