Abstract

Abstract: Antifungal components, which isolated from ethanol extract of Juniperus chinensis cv. Kaizuca with ethyl acetate, were tested against Valsa mali, Coniothyrium diplodiella, and so on, based on bioassay-guided method. The results showed that ethyl acetate extracts of J. chinensis had certain inhibition effects to all tested fungi, and the best inhibition rates against E mali and C. diplodiella were 83.06% and 78.87% at 2 mg/mL, respoctively. The EC50 of the active component Savinin against E mall, C. diplodiella , Gibberella zeae , Elsinoe ampelina , Physalospora piricola and Fusarium oxysporurn were 0.38,0.18,0.47,0.59,0.70 mg/mL, and 1.94 mg/mL, respectively.
