Abstract:
The present study was conducted on developing environmentally safe, long-lasting and effectively biocontrol methods to test the efficacy of plant extracts in vitro against A. solani and C. capsici, causing tomato fruit rot. For eco-friendly, cost effective and non- phytotoxic management the phytoextracts (each @ 10% & 20%) tested in vitro. Among the nine phytoextracts Lawsonia inermis resulted with highest mycelial growth inhibition (80.21%) followed by Allium sativum (70.87%), Eucalyptus globulus (68.36%). Whereas, least inhibition of test fungus was recorded in Aloe barbadensis (54.56%). However, in C. capsici, A. sativum resulted with highest mycelial growth inhibition (97.31%) followed L. inermis (65.28%), Zingiber officinale and E. globulus (61.21%). Whereas, least inhibition of test fungus was recorded in A. barbadensis (48.99%).
