L’objectif de ce travail est d’évaluer le pouvoir fongicide des feuilles de Mallotus oppositifolius sur Phytophthora sp. et Fusarium sp. deux champignons phytopathogènes dans le cadre de la recherche de substances naturelles d’origine végétale comme alternative aux pesticides chimiques en agriculture. Une enquête ethnobotanique réalisée auprès de quarante tradipraticiens de santé du District de Yamoussoukro sur les Euphorbiaceae médicinales a permis d’identifier treize espèces. L’étude a montré que les maladies de la peau (36%) étaient majoritairement traitées par ces Euphorbiaceae dont Mallotus oppositifolius. Au vue de ces données et celles de la littérature, Mallotus oppositifolius a été retenu pour l’évaluation du potentiel antifongique contre Fusarium sp. et Phytophthora sp. L'activité antifongique a été évaluée par la méthode de double dilution sur milieu PDA avec des extraits éthanoliques et aqueux dérivés des feuilles de cette plante. Les résultats ont montré que les extraits aqueux et éthanoliques 70% de Mallotus oppositifolius possèdent des propriétés antifongiques à la fois sur Fusarium sp. et Phytophthora sp. Les activités antifongiques ont été plus importantes avec les extraits éthanoliques qu’avec les extraits aqueux. Avec une concentration minimal inhibitrice CMI = 25±0,0 mg/mL, une CI50 = 6,5±0,05 mg/mL et une concentration minimal fongicide CMF = 200±0,0 mg/mL Fusarium sp. semble être le plus sensible. Phytophthora sp. est moins sensible avec une CMI = 50±0,0 mg/mL, une CI50 = 12±0,05 mg/mL et une CMF = 200±0,0 mg/mL. Le screening phytochimique a mis en évidence la présence de sept groupes de composés parmi lesquels les alcaloïdes, les polyterpènes et stérols, les tanins galliques et les catéchines sont les plus abondants dans les extraits éthanoliques. En plus de ces composés, les flavonoïdes, les polyphénols ainsi que les saponines sont aussi bien présents dans les extraits aqueux que dans les extraits alcooliques de Mallotus oppositifolius. Ces composés pourraient justifier l’activité des extraits éthanoliques de Mallotus oppositifolius. Ces résultats peuvent servir pour les recherches agronomiques dans le cadre de la lutte contre les deux champignons phytopathogènes étudiés. Botanical study, phytochemical screening and in vitro evaluation of the antifungal activity of Mallotus oppositifolius (Geisel.) Müll. Arg. (Euphorbiaceae) leaf extracts on Fusarium sp. and Phytophthora sp., two phytopathogenic fungi. ABSTRACT The purpose of this work is to evaluate the fungicidal power of the leaves of Mallotus oppositifolius on Phytophthora sp. and Fusarium sp. two phytopathogenic fungi in the research of natural substances of plant origin as an alternative to chemical pesticides in agriculture. An ethnobotanical survey of forty traditional healers in the Yamoussoukro District on medicinal Euphorbiaceae identified thirteen species.The study showed that skin diseases (36%) were mainly treated by these Euphorbiaceae including Mallotus oppositifolius. In view of these data and those in the literature, Mallotus oppositifolius was selected for the evaluation of the antifungal potential against Fusarium sp. and Phytophthora sp. The antifungal activity was evaluated by the double dilution method on PDA medium with ethanolic and aqueous extracts derived from the leaves of this plant. The results showed that aqueous and ethanolic extracts 70% of Mallotus oppositifolius have antifungal properties on both Fusarium sp. and Phytophthora sp. Antifungal activities were more important with ethanolic extracts than with aqueous extracts. With a minimum inhibitory concentration MIC = 25±0.0 mg/mL, a minimal concentration for 50 % of inhibition IC50 = 6.5±0.05 mg/mL and a minimum fungicide concentration MFC = 200±0.0 mg/mL Fusarium sp. appears to be the most sensitive. Phytophthora sp. is less sensitive with an MIC = 50±0.0 mg/mL, an IC50 = 12±0.05 mg/mL and a MFC = 200±0.0 mg/mL. Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of seven groups of compounds among which alkaloids, polyterpenes and sterols, gallic tannins and catechins are the most abundant in ethanol extracts. In addition to these compounds, flavonoids, polyphenols and saponins are present in both aqueous and alcoholic extracts of Mallotus oppositifolius. These compounds could justify the activity of the ethanolic extracts of Mallotus oppositifolius. These results can be used for agronomic research to control the two phytopathogenic fungi studied.

Emergence Of Resistance

The high incidence of infectious diseases and the emergence of resistance to modern drugs are current public health concerns. This situation leads to the search for alternatives via medicinal plants. The objective of this study was to assess the properties of Vernonia conferta. We performed an experimental study. The plant material consisted of the leaves and trunk bark of V. conferta. The extraction was carried out by maceration using aqueous and hydro-ethanolic solvents, followed by phytochemical screening of the extracts. An evaluation of the antibacterial potential was carried out by the micro-dilution method and was followed by the evaluation of the antioxidant properties (DPPH and FRAP test) and cytotoxicity (resazurin staining) of the extracts. The E2 and E4 extracts exhibited better extraction yields. The phytochemical screening noted the presence of families of compounds in common (polyphenols, tannins and quinones) and those which are different. The hydro-ethanolic extracts exhibited antibacterial activity on the strains of interest with MICs varying from 2 to 32 mg / mL with a possibility of synergistic action between the compounds. The evaluation of the antioxidant properties showed that the extracts E1, E3 and E4 showed better properties with IC50 = 25.1 ± 0.410; 2.456 ± 0.002; 2.363 ± 0.015 µg / mL respectively according to the tested method. The extracts showed their non-cytotoxicity with CC50> 1000 µg / mL. The activities of hydro-ethanolic extracts of V. conferta suggest that the latter would be a potential raw material for the production of improved traditional medicines.

Information collected from nine (09) traditional healers in the Moronou village in the Department of Toumodi revealed that Anthocleista djanlonensis is regularly used by the population for primary health care in the processing of malaria. Evaluation of the In vitro antiplasmodial activity showed that the aqueous extracts inhibit growth of clinical isolates and chloroquinoresistant strains (K1) with IC50 of 8.29 µg/mL and 10.23 µg/mL while the ethanolic extracts had IC50 of 37.65 µg/mL and 46.07 µg/mL on the same strains respectively. Results of the In vitro antimalarial bioassay showed that aqueous extracts have promising antiplasmodial effects on clinical isolates and on Plasmodium falciparum multidrug resistant K1 strain (3 µg/mL <IC50 <15 µg/mL). Phytochemical screening revealed that the extracts contain mainly alkaloids, polyphenols, polyterpenes and flavonoids

The in vitro antifungal activity was determined of an ethanolic extract of Vitis vinifera L. tendrils (TVV) against ten plant pathogenic fungi, using the agar dilution method; activity was shown against all tested fungi. Fusarium species were the most sensitive with MIC values ranging from 250 to 300 ppm, while the basidiomycete fungus Rhizoctonia solani was the most resistant, with a MIC value of 500 ppm. Electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MSn) was used to obtain qualitative information on the main components of TVV. The high amount of polyphenolic compounds contained in TVV is likely to contribute significantly to its antifungal activity.

An ethnobotanical survey was carried out in the District of Yamoussoukro (Central Côte d’Ivoire) in order to evaluate the biocontrol potential against fungal plant pathogens, of Euphorbiaceous plants used as medicines by the native population. Twelve (12) species were collected. The antifungal activity was assessed using the two-fold dilution method on PDA medium with ethanolic and aqueous extract derived from leaves of six plants. Results pointed out that only 70% ethanolic extracts from Alchornea cordifolia (EE13) possess fungicidal properties on both Fusarium sp. and Phytophthora sp. The antifungal activities are more effective with ethanolic extracts than aqueous extracts. With a minimal inhibitory concentration MIC = 25±0.0 mg/ml, a minimal concentration for 50% of inhibition IC50 = 10±0.05 mg/ml and a minimal fungicide concentration MFC = 200±0.0 mg/ml Fusarium sp. appears to be the most sensitive. Phytophthora sp. is less sensitive with a MIC = 50±0.0 mg/ml, an IC50 = 12±0.05 mg/ml and a MFC = 200±0.0 mg/ml. Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of seven major groups of compounds among which saponins and catechin are the most abundant in aqueous extracts. Polyphenols, flavonoids, polyterpenes and sterols as well as tannins are present in both alcoholic and aqueous extracts of Alchornea cordifolia. These compounds could justify its antifungal activity and traditional use.

?mong 50 bacterial isolates obtained from maize rhizospher?, 13 isolates belonged to the genus Azotobacter. Isolates were biochemically characterized and estimated for pH and halo tolerance ability and antibiotic resistance. According to characterization, the six representative isolates were selected and further screened in vitro for plant growth promoting properties: production of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), siderophores, hydrogen cyanide (HCN), exopolysaccharides, phosphate solubilization and antifungal activity (vs. Helminthosporium sp., Macrophomina sp., Fusarium sp.). Beside HCN production, PGP properties were detected for all isolates except Azt7. All isolates produced IAA in the medium without L-tryptophan and the amount of produced IAA increased with concentration of precursor in medium. The highest amount of IAA was produced by isolates Azt4 (37.69 and 45.86 ?g ml-1) and Azt5 (29.44 and 50.38 ?g ml-1) in the medium with addition of L-tryptophan (2.5 and 5 mM). The isolates showed the highest antifungal activity against Helminthosporium sp. and the smallest antagonistic effect on Macrophomina sp. Radial Growth Inhibition (RGI) obtained by the confrontation of isolates with tested phytopathogenic fungi, ranged from 10 to 48%.

During this study, thein vitroantifungal and antibacterial activities of different extracts (aqueous and organic) obtained from a French propolis batch were evaluated. Antifungal activity was evaluated by broth microdilution on three pathogenic strains:Candida albicans, C. glabrata, andAspergillus fumigatus. Antibacterial activity was assayed using agar dilution method on 36 Gram-negative and Gram-positive strains includingStaphylococcus aureus. Organic extracts showed a significant antifungal activity againstC. albicansandC. glabrata(MIC80between 16 and 31 µg/mL) but only a weak activity towardsA. fumigatus(MIC80= 250 µg/mL). DCM based extracts exhibited a selective Gram-positive antibacterial activity, especially againstS. aureus(SA) and several of its methicillin-resistant (MRSA) and methicillin-susceptible (MSSA) strains (MIC10030–97 µg/mL). A new and active derivative of catechin was also identified whereas a synergistic antimicrobial effect was noticed during this study.

Antifungal Efficacy

Background: Fluconazole (FLZ), a potent antifungal medication, is characterized by poor water solubility that reduced its antifungal efficacy. Objective: This study aimed to prepare FLZ-loaded polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) by using different polymers and techniques as a mean of enhancing the antifungal activity of FLZ. Methods: NP1, NP2, and NP3 were prepared by the double emulsion/solvent evaporation method using PLGA, PCL, and PLA, respectively. The ionotropic pre-gelation technique was applied to prepare an alginate/chitosan-based formulation (NP4). Particle size, zeta potential, encapsulation efficiency, and loading capacity were characterized. FT-IR spectra of FLZ, the polymers, and the prepared NPs were estimated. NP4 was selected for further in-vitro release evaluation. The broth dilution method was used to assess the antifungal activity of NP4 using a resistant clinical isolate of Candida albicans. Results: The double emulsion method produced smaller-sized particles (<390 nm) but with much lower encapsulation efficiency (< 12%). Alternatively, the ionic gelation method resulted in nanosized particles with a markedly higher encapsulation efficiency of about 40%. The FT-IR spectroscopy confirmed the loading of the FLZ molecules in the polymeric network of the prepared NPs. The release profile of NP4 showed a burst initial release followed by a controlled pattern up to 24 hours with a higher percent released relative to the free FLZ suspension. NP4 was able to reduce the value of MIC of FLZ by 20 times. Conclusion: The antifungal activity of FLZ against C. albicans was enhanced markedly via its loading in the alginate/chitosan-based polymeric matrix of NP4.

Objective: To evaluate the in vitro antifungal activity of aqueous extracts of Acacia senegal (A. senegal) and Acacia tortilis (A. tortilis) against three phytopathogenic fungi (viz., Alternaria alternata [A. alternata], Helminthosporium rostratum [H. rostratum] and Fusarium solani [F. solani]). Methods: Crude aqueous extracts of A. senegal and A. tortilis at 1%, 2.5% and 5% concentrations were used for screening. Antifungal activities of the extracts were evaluated against three phytopathogenic fungal strains (A. alternata, H. rostratum and F. solani) by poisoned food technique. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of the treated and untreated mycelia was employed to analyze the ultrastructural changes and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometry analysis was performed to identify important functional groups. Results: Aqueous extract of A. tortilis at high concentrations exhibited moderate inhibitory activity against the selected fungal strains. The aqueous extract of A. senegal showed no effect on A. alternata, while exhibited very mild activity against H. rostratum and F. solani at high concentrations (2.5% and 5%). Scanning electron microphotographs of the untreated fungal cells showed no structural changes (well‒defined mycelium and conidia without any distortion), whereas the treated cells showed structural distortions, twisted and wrecked mycelia and showed the presence of vesicles on the surface. FTIR analysis showed the presence of important functional groups such as alcohols, carboxylic acids and aromatic compounds. Conclusion: Results from this study indicate that the aqueous extracts of both A. senegal and A. tortilis have the potential to be used as natural fungicidal agents in the management of diseases caused by plant pathogenic fungi.
