Phytochemical characterization and antifungal potential of leaf extracts of < em > Mosiera bullata < /em >

The objective of the present study was to perform a bioassay-guided fractionation to explore the potential of extracts and fractions from M. bullata leaves against a panel of fungal plant pathogens. The M. bullata total extract was confirmed to have good antifungal activity against R. oryzae (IC50 = 4.86 µg/mL) and moderate activity against F. oxysporum (IC50 = 352.40 µg/mL) and F. solani (IC50 = 427.38 µg/mL) and fungicidal effect against R. oryzae. Five compounds belonging to the class of phloroglucinol dimers were tentatively characterized by UHPLC-HRMS and reported for the first time in M. bullata and the genus Mosiera. These results suggest the potential of M. bullata total extract as a natural antifungal product for the control of diseases in agriculture.PMID:37548293 | DOI:10.1080/14786419.2023.2244132
