alternata, it was found that the essential oil of Piper hispidinervum showed fungitoxic activity on the mycelial growth of this fungus (La Torre et al., 2014; Llorens et al., 2017).
These EOs have a larvicidal effect against the Coenagrionidae family and fungitoxic activity in vitro against species of pathogenic fungi and wood decay (SILVA et al., 2014; SCHINDLER, 2015).
A variety of plant extracts and secondary metabolites such as essential oil, tannins, alkaloids, and flavonoids have been reported to have promising in vitro fungitoxic activities against a range of fungi [18].

These observations suggest that high accumulation of ROS in younger leaf tissues during the earlier stages of infection may have a direct fungitoxic effect on the pathogen (e.g.
