Özet
In desert environments, the date palm is a vital component of the oasis ecosystem. Despite its importance to the local community and the national economy, date palm agriculture in Algeria faces a number of challenges. One of the biggest obstacles is infectious diseases, such as the fungus Mauginiella scaettae’s date palm inflorescence rot. While fungicides play an important role in controlling this disease, their use can have negative consequences for human health and the environment due to the presence of residues. In the context of this growth, there is an increasing interest in moving from pesticides to ecologically benign disease management methods. Thus, it is necessary to study innovative methods for the effective and safe control of inflorescence rot. Due to their antifungal qualities, it appears that using the essences of some aromatic and medicinal herbs is one of the most efficient methods for preventing fungal illnesses. In this regard, the latest research evaluates the efficacy of an alternative technique to synthetic fungicides, specifically the examination of Mentha pulegium essential oils' antifungal activity" in vitro". Therefore, the purpose of this research consisted of the identification of chemical components involved in Mentha pulegium as well as investigation of its possible antifungal activity against Mauginiella scaettae. In vitro testing was done to determine the antifungal effects of volatile oil at selected doses (0.25, 0.5, and 1) µl/ml against Mauginiella scaettae. The obtained data show a yield of 0.99±0.041% for the essential oil. Seventeen components were identified in the essential oil studied. Isomenthone (19.31%), Thymol (11.39 …
