- Abstract
Whereas it is generally acknowledged that the use of pesticides has large benefit to farmers, the present use of pesticides in agriculture also causes negative environmental effects to society. These negative effects demand an alternative solution for conventional pesticides. Plant extracts is a group of substances extracted from different parts of plants which contain compounds with antimicrobial properties. By using the „poisoned food technique“ we've managed to study the effect of plant extracts on inhibiting the growth of Monilinia fructigena, the most effective extracts were those of Echinacea purpurea, Cynara scolymus, Salvia officinalis, Tagetes sp., Hyssopus officinalis, Artemisia absinthium, Hypericum perforatum, Aristolochia clematitis and Achillea millefolium.
