Overview

This analysis shows plant extracts can effectively control fungi in tissue culture media of date palm, suggesting alternatives to chemical pesticides.

Key Points

  • The study indicates that alcoholic clove extract inhibits fungi growth by 98.15%, demonstrating strong antifungal properties.
  • PCR analysis confirmed the presence of fungi species, particularly Aspergillus niger and Penicillium chrysogenum, affecting date palm tissue culture.
  • Chemical pesticide Beltanol showed high effectiveness, particularly against P. chrysogenum and A. flavus, with inhibition rates of 100% and 88% respectively.
  • Increasing concentrations of clove extracts correlate with enhanced inhibition rates of the fungi, indicating potential for natural alternatives in fungal management.
