Notes:
Summary Leaves ofChenopodium ambrosioides exhibited strong fungitoxicity against the mycelial growth ofRhizoctonia solani causing damping off diseases of some seedlings. Minimum inhibitory concentration of the fungitoxic constituent isolated in form of essential oil, was found to be 1000 ppm at which it was fungicidal in nature. It exhibited broad range of antifungal activity and did not show any phytotoxicity on the germination and seedling growth ofPhaseolus aureus.
