The antimicrobial activity of some medicinal plant species from Nanded, MS, India

Journal Title: International Journal of Life Science - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1

Abstract

During the present studies, different solvent extracts i.e. aqueous, alcoholic and ethyl acetate extracts of different parts of some plant species were tested against two plant pathogens like Alternaria brassicicola, and Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri. The antibacterial and antifungal activities of all these extracts were determined by zone of Inhibition and paper disc method. Most of the extracts were found effective against these pathogens. The positive results so obtained were compared with that of the reference standard fungicide (Carbendazim) and bactericide (Streptomycin). It was found that some extracts were more effective against pathogens than the fungicide and bactericide.
