Management of Eumusae leaf spot disease of banana caused by Mycosphaerella eumusae with Zimmu (Allium sativum × Allium cepa) leaf extract

Evaluation of the Storage Quality of Coconut Seed Using Extracts of <i>Mangifera indica</i> Against <i>Ceratocysis paradoxa,</i> the Bole Rot Fungus

“…This result also agrees with the report of on the evaluation of antifungal efficacy of some plant extracts on Curularium lunata, the causal pathogen of maize rot disease [16]. Some plant species such as Aloe vera (L.) Burm F. (A. vera) (aloe) Glycyrrhiza glabra L. (G. glabra) (licorice), and Allium sativum L. (A. sativum) (garlic) have been shown to consist of bioactive natural products with significant antifungal activity [17]. The inhibitory efficacy of the extract of Lime fruit bark (Citrus aurantitolia) on mycelial growth of the fungus, Colletotrichum falcatum, the causal organism of sugarcane red rot disease have been documented [18].…”

Suppression of Fusarium wilt disease of banana by Zimmu (Allium cepa L. x Allium sativum L.) leaf extract

“…The filtrate was then centrifuged at 7500 g for 20 min and the clear supernatant was removed. The methanol was evaporated using a Laborota 4000 Heidolph at 40°C and the residue was dissolved in 2 ml of distilled water and this sample was used for further analysis (Thangavelu et al, 2013). On a silica gel TLC plate, 5 ml of the Zimmu methanol extract was spotted at 1.5 cm intervals and different compounds were separated, developed and detected using different spray reagents (Developer) ( Table 5) and the R f values were calculated (Sadasivam and Manickam, 1992).…”

Review of advances in the thin layer chromatography of pesticides: 2012–2014

“…ninhydrin for amino acids. [7] This section describes new reagents reported for pesticide detection.…”

“…[5] Other important applications of TLC include analysis of pesticide formulations; characterization of synthesized pesticides, [6] separation and characterization of active constituents of plant [7] and bacteria [8] extracts (biopesticides); studies of pesticide properties such as metabolism and degradation; mechanism of action; preparative layer chromatography (PLC) for purification of compounds prior to further analysis; bioassays; thin layer radiochromatography (TLRC); migration in soil; and lipophilicity studies related to the biological activity of a pesticide. TLC applications for insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, and rodenticides are covered, including some antifungal drugs, which were reviewed in a recent book chapter.…”
