Antifungal activity of methanolic extracts of Sorghum halepense against Macrophomina phaseolina
Open accessAbstract
Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi) Goid., the cause of charcoal rot disease, is the major biotic factor that limits cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.] productivity worldwide. The present study was designed to investigate the antifungal potential of an allelopathic grass Sorghum halepense Pers. for the management of M. phaseolina isolated from charcoal rot infected cowpea plants. In laboratory bioassays, different concentrations (0, 0.5, 1.0,…, 3.0 g/ml) of methanolic extracts of shoot, root and inflorescence of the test allelopathic grass were evaluated for their in vitro antifungal activity against M. phaseolina. Extracts of all the three parts of the grass exhibited variable antifungal activity. Shoot extract was found the most effective where all the extract concentrations significantly reduced the fungal biomass by 14 to 61% over control. Similarly, all concentrations of the root extract except 0.5% significantly suppressed the fungal biomass. Inflorescence extract exhibited the least antifungal activity where only 2% and higher concentrations showed the significant effect. There was 9 to 48% and 4 to 39% reduction in fungal biomass due to various concentrations of methanolic root and inflorescence extracts, respectively.

Javaid et al. (2012) found that methanolic extracts from shoots, roots, and inflorescences of Sorghum halepense at 0.5-3.0 g/100 mL had antifungal activity against Macrophomina phaseolina, significantly reducing fungal biomass.
“The authors demonstrated that different concentrations of methanolic extracts (from 0.5 to 3.0 g.100 -1 mL) from shoots, roots, and inflorescences of S. halapense had antifungal activity against M. phaseolina by reducing the fungal biomass significantly.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
