Abstract
Anthemis tenuisecta is an endemic Moroccan Asteraceae. The in vitro antifungal activity of Anthemis tenuisecta essential oil (EO) using agar dilution and disk diffusion assays was evaluated against three fungi isolated from decayed strawberries. Also, its efficiency to prolong the shelf life of raspberries and strawberries was tested. Moreover, the seed emergence of this species was evaluated. The results contributed to value this species regarding the antifungal potential of its EO as a natural alternative to chemical fungicides, either as a model for synthesizing new effective bioactive products that suggest its conservation for sustainable use.
