Actividad fungicida de cuatro especies cubanas de plantas sobre Botrytis cinerea Pers. Estudio fitoquímico
Main Article Content
Abstract
Botrytis cinerea Pers. es un hongo fitopatógeno responsable de la enfermedad conocida como “podredumbre gris” y afecta a más de 235 especies de plantas cultivadas y silvestres; especialmente a las hojas, flores y frutos (Casatejada, 1996). Actualmente el uso de fungicidas comerciales significa un grave problema por los efectos colaterales que producen, relacionados con la contaminación ambiental, la falta de especificidad, su incorporación a la cadena alimentaria, así como, la aparición de resistencia en dichos patógenos. Por tal motivo, se han venido desarrollando investigaciones en el campo de los productos naturales para la obtención de fungicidas racionales y altamente biodegradables, en el cual las plantas han jugado un papel primordial, resultando ser un instrumento importante en el desarrollo de una agricultura sostenible. En este sentido, y conociendo que Cuba posee una gran variedad florística aún sin explotar nos propusimos como objetivos en este trabajo evaluar la actividad fungicida de los extractos de cuatro especies cubanas de plantas sobre el hongo fitopatógeno Botrytis cinerea Pers., así como, aislar y caracterizar los compuestos responsables de tal actividad a partir del extracto más activo.
