Abstract: The effects of extracts from ten plant species on the mycelial growth and conidial production of four major fungi associated with yam tuber rot were investigated. Extracts of Allium sativum, Ocimum gratissimum, Cassia alata, Azadiracta indica, and Hibiscus rosa-sinensis were found to be effective in reducing mycelial growth as well as conidial production at varying degrees in vitro. Their incorporation into plant protection programs will be a good complement in integrated crop disease management.
