Table 3.
Effect of compounds on sclerotia biogenesis. Sclerotia biomass (A. flavus) or number (Sclerotinia spp.) was determined in cultures exposed to 100 µM concentration of compounds. Values are reported as inhibition percentage as compared to the control (DMSO amended cultures) ± S.D. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences (p < 0.05).
| Aspergillus flavus | Sclerotinia spp. | |
|---|---|---|
| Compound | Inhibition (%) mg/Colony Area (cm2) |
Inhibition (%) nr/Colony Area (cm2) |
| JTS | 71.9 ± 3.0 * | 55.3 ± 7.1 * |
| JTS-Cu | 96.9 ± 1.6 * | n.d. |
| JdiTS | 62.5 ± 5.7 * | 52.6 ± 3.5 * |
| JdiTS-Cu | 0.0 ± 0.2 | n.d. |
