Abstract

In vitro studies were conducted to test the anti-fungal properties of garlic ( Allium sativum L.) extracts, extracted with different solvents against the pathogen, Colletotrichum jalcatum Went, which is a causal organism of red rot disease in sugarcane. Among the extracts tested, garlic with acetone followed by garlic with methanol were found to be significantly effective in inhibiting the growth of test fungi, inoculated in potato dextrose broth (PDB) medium. The mean weight of mycelial growth of test fungi in acetone, methanol, kerosene and water extracts were 0.0205, 0.0251,0.1032 and 0.1744 mg, respectively.
