温室条件下对风油草的抗菌作用及麻疯树叶提取物的植物化学分析
在体内条件下,研究了麻瓜叶提取物对花生晚叶斑病病原菌Phaeoisariopsis personata的抗真菌作用,并鉴定了具有抗真菌作用的重要植物化学成分。结果表明,所有麻疯树叶提取物在最高浓度(0.5 mg mL-1)下,氯仿、乙酸乙酯和甲醇提取物分别降低了36.89%、36.59%和24.67%的晚叶斑病发病率。结果表明,与对照(未处理)相比,麻瓜叶提取物处理促进了花生的生长和产量。气相色谱-质谱法鉴定了麻瓜的植物化学成分,证实了麻瓜的抗真菌作用。十六烷;棕榈酸;苯酚,2,4双(-二甲基乙基);结果表明,蓖麻叶提取物中主要含有叶绿醇和十六烷甲酯,可能与抗真菌活性有关。©2021朋友科学出版社
