Abstract
Aqueous extracts from 20 plants were tested for their antifungal activity against Coriolus versicolor inciting wood rot in trees. Test results showed a differential activity of the plant extracts against the mycelium growth. The combined seed extracts of Azadirachta indica and rhizome extracts of Curcuma domestica in general showed a strong enhancement in activities over the individual seed extracts of A. indica and rhizome extracts of C. domestica against the mycelium growth. The seed extracts of Albizia stipulata and seed extracts of Acacia arabicae showed strong inhibitory effect against the test fungi. The leaf extracts of Adhatoda vasika, leaf extracts of Aegle marmelos, whole plant extracts of Cuscuta reflexa, leaf extracts of Clerodendron inerme and root extracts of Acacia catechu showed appreciable good inhibitory effect against the test fungi.
