Botanical Extracts for Rice Fungal Diseases

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Modern Techniques of Rice Crop Production

Abstract

Frequent and prophylactic applications of fungicides on rice are highly toxic to a broad range of organisms, posing a great risk to aquatic biota. Therefore, there is need to adopt ecofriendly management practices against rice diseases for healthy crop and to obtain high yield. Secondary metabolites of a high diversity are produced by plants as a natural product. These secondary metabolites that are present in botanical extracts have the ability to kill microbial pathogens using their toxicity. It has been investigated that about 2000 higher plant species have pesticidal properties against various plant pathogens. Researches on the application of botanical extracts to control fungal pathogens of rice are in progress. Plant extracts have shown antifungal activity against many fungal pathogens that attack rice. In recent years, botanical extracts, mainly neem derivatives, due to their antifungal as well as antibacterial properties, are gaining great importance in the control of rice diseases. A wide range of plants, having potential antifungal substances, are receiving considerable attention throughout the world. This chapter explores the applications of various plant products for the management of devastating fungal diseases of rice. Due to the antifungal activity, biodegradable nature and quick access to availability, the significance of botanical extracts is increasing in modern agriculture for the management of fungal diseases. Botanical extracts are also nonhazardous to environment and induce resistance in plants against the diseases.
