Medicinal plants are considerably useful and economically essential. They contain active constituents that are used in the treatment of many human diseases A. flavus recorded maximum antifungal activity of 93.0% inhibition at 50% concentration tested. In 40% of aqueous extract, it was recorded 78.3% inhibition and moderate activity was observed in 20 and 30% concentration and recorded 63.3% and 49.3%, respectively. A. flavus was followed by Penicillium species and was recorded 91.3% inhibition at 50% concentration. In 30 and 40% concentration, it was recorded 671% and 79.3% inhibition, respectively. Least activity was observed in 10% concentration. In F. oxysporum, at 50% concentration, 88.0% inhibition was recorded followed by 67.2%, 51.1%, 35.2% and 22.0% inhibition in 40, 30, 20 and 10% concentration tested. C. lunata recorded significant activity of 80.3% inhibition in 50% concentration and least inhibition was observed in 10% concentration (15.0%). In C. cladosporioides it was recorded 74.5% inhibition in 50% concentration and at 10% concentration; it was recorded 25.3% inhibition. Moderate activity was observed in 20, 30 and 40% concentration. Compared to synthetic fungicide Dithane M 45 and Bavistin at 2.0% recommended concentration, 100% inhibition was observed in all the test fungi.
