Use of massoialactone for inhibition of fungal growth

摘要

Massoialactone is useful for preventing or at least inhibiting growth of a fungus. Accordingly, a fungicidal composition has massoialactone as an active antifungal compound together with an agronomically acceptable carrier therefor. Additional antifungal ingredients can be added to the composition. The composition can be applied to surfaces, including surfaces of plants and plant parts, such as seeds.
