Moringa oleifera, or drumstick tree, is popularly known as the
miracle tree. Almost every part of this tree is scientifically proven to
be useful, be it root, bark, gum, leaf, fruit, flower, and seed. Over
the years, many scientific studies have illustrated large bioactive
compounds from Moringa oleifera extract. It is possible that the
antifungal property of Moringa oleifera is closely associated
with the presence of its bioactive compounds. However, this finding is
limited to human studies and few on agricultural importance despite
their potentiality. Nonetheless, various studies found good antifungal
activity of Moringa oleifera extract, the promising results for
the antifungal activity made it a good candidate to replace the
synthetic fungicide. In this regard, this review focuses on using
Moringa oleifera extracts as a potential biofungicide against the
soil borne fungal disease that destroys most cash crops, especially
chillies. Conclusively, this review outline the current state of
knowledge and provides a compilation of evidence-based literature on
Moringa oleifera extract to provide a reference for its potential
application as biofungicide against soil borne fungal disease.
