Abstract
This study was conducted in the Plant Pathology Laboratory/ College of Agriculture/ University of Anbar to study and test the effectiveness of plant extracts (turmeric, pomegranate peel, banana peel) in inhibiting the growth of the fungus Aspergillus flavus and test its ability to reduce aflatoxin B1 from liquid media. The plant materials (powders and extracts) were used in three concentrations (10, 15, 20) mg ml-1. The results showed that all plant materials were significantly effective in inhibiting the growth of A. flavus and their ability to reduce aflatoxin B1 from liquid media. Turmeric powder showed its superiority in its inhibitory effect on the growth of fungi on PDA culture medium, as it achieved the highest percentage of inhibition at a concentration of 20 mg ml-1, which amounted to 87.41%. Whereas, banana peel powder gave the lowest inhibition rate at 10mg ml-1 concentration) 64.07% (. While the aqueous extract of turmeric achieved inhibition in the growth of the fungus at a concentration of 20 mg ml-1 by 87.41%, outperformed the aqueous extract of pomegranate and banana, where the rates of inhibition reached 86.66% and 82.96%, respectively at the same concentration. In addition, the alcoholic extract of turmeric showed the highest rate of inhibition of fungi growth at a concentration of 20 mg ml-1, which amounted to 94.07%, followed by the alcoholic extract of banana and pomegranate with a percentage of 93.3% and 88.14%, respectively, at the same concentration.
