An allosecurinine alkaloid was assayed against spore germination of some saprophytic and pathogenic fungi e.g., Alternaria alternata, A. solani, A. brassicicola, A. brassicae, Curvularia lunata, C. pallescens, C. maculans, Curvularia species, Colletotrichum species, C. musae, C. gloeosporioides, Erysiphe pisi, Fusarium udum, Helminthosporium echinoclova, H. pennisetti, H. spiciferum, and Hetero...

1-Corydalmine,an alkaloid isolated from roots of Corydalis chaerophylla inhibited spore germination of some plant pathogenic as well as saprophytic fungi e.g. Alternaria brassicae, A. brassicicola, A. solani, Curvularia lunata, C. maculans, C. sp., C. pallscens, Erysiphe pisi, Fusarium udum, Helminthosporium species,H. penniseti and a Heterosporium species. 1-Corydalmine significantly inhibited...

Alternaria brassicae is a necrotrophic fungus causes blight disease in oilseed mustard crop. There 47% loss of the crop due to disease. To control this disease, various chemical fungicides have been used till date which are harmful our environment. Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles synthesized from Terminalia bellerica reported significant antifungal potential against A. at 200 ppm concentration. ...
