| 4 | C. beticola | 633.33 ± 19.07d |
| 5 | A. alternata | 1,500 ± 0e |
| 6 | F. oxysporum | 833.33 ± 58.11f |
| 7 | G. candidum | 1,200 ± 0g |
| 8 | A. fumigatus | 2,000 ± 0h |

The values on the tables are the means ± standard error (SE) of three replicates. A one-way ANOVA (Tukey’s Multiple Comparison tests) was performed to check for potential statistical differences (P <0.05) between the antifungal activity of the endophytic extract against different pathogens. Similar letters indicate no statistical difference between the data sets, and a different letter indicates a valid statistical difference between the data sets.
