Abstract
Coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) antifungal activity against the phytopathogenic fungi C. cucumerinum, F. culmorum, B. cinerea and A. niger was evaluated using leaf extracts obtained with ethyl acetate or methanol.
The relation between mineral supply and photobioactivity was not clear while the increasing of water deficit strongly enhanced the light dependent antifungal activity.
On the whole the lack of P and a water deficit of about 50% enhanced the potential photoactivity of C. sativum comparatively to its ground state activity.
