[Inhibitory effects of natural plant extracts on Verticillium albo-atrum].
This paper studied the inhibitory effects of 54 kinds of ethanol-extracted plant solutions on Verticillium albo-atrum. The results showed that 15 kinds of these extracts could inhibit the growth of verticillium albo-atrum mycelium, with an inhibitory rate more than 50%, among which, the inhibitory rate of Asarum sieboldii, Coptis chinensis, Magnolia officinalis, Acacia catechu, Sophora flavescens, Glycyrrhiza uralensis, Cnidium monnieri, Platycodon grandiflorum and Allium. cepa. extracts was higher than 65%, and that of Cnidium monnieri extract reached 86.84%. A total of 16 kinds of plant extracts decreased the spore germination of V. albo-atrum, with the inhibitory rate higher than 70%, and there were 7 kinds of plant extracts whose inhibitory rate reached 95%. Almost no spore bourgeon was found after treated with Asarum sieboldii, Coptis chinensis, and Magnolia officinalis extracts. The extract of Acacia catechu did not inhibit the growth of mycelium, but restrained the spore germination by 100%. Cnidium monnieri extract could strongly inhibit the growth of mycelium, but had a less effect on spore germination rate (only by 11.3%). The active substances found in natural plant extracts which had the inhibitory effects on pathogen brought us a new and promising method to deal with V. albo-atrum and other vegetable diseases.
