ABSTRACT:

Differed Concentration of paenol and its derivative especially in the range of .05 to .40% (W/V) inhibit the dry matter of the mycelia of the test fungi "Alternaria alternate"* when screened in vitro on Richard's medium employing dry weight determination method of assessing fungitoxicity. The percentage of inhibition was also calculated.
