  The inhibitory effect of essential oil of flowering buds and potential extracts of Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehn (leaf, Bark and Flowering Buds) were evaluated on the most aggressive isolate of Bipolaris sorokiniana from wheat crop by agar well diffusion, food poison technique and macro-dilution assay. The mycelial growth was evaluated over four periods (3; 6; 9 and 30 days from incubation) with nine concentrations of essential oils (0.5%; 01%; 2.5%; 05%; 7.5%; 10%; 15%; 50%; 100%) and 3 concentrations (01%; 05% and 10%) of effective extracts. E.oil showed a maximum zone of inhibition of 90 mm diameter and mycelia growth 0.00 ± 0.00 compares to control 40.00 ± 0.00 after 9 days of incubation at 50% and 100% concentration. The extracts of F. buds showed the strongest active values (P<0.05) with a 29.10 ± 0.92 ZOI compared to wat.. View More»
