In the decayed tomato samples assessed‚ fungi isolates were more prevalent than bacteria. However‚ there were wide variations in microbial population‚ with Mucor spp being predominant (28 isolates)‚ followed by A. niger (11 isolates) and Rhizopus stolonifer (Figure 1). These results corroborate previous studies of Ogunbanwo et al. (2014) and Fatima et al. (2015) who reported that fungi were more prevalent compared to bacteria.

Topical microemulsion systems for the antifungal activity containing Clotrimazole are designed to overcome the problems associated with its low solubility (0.49 mg/L) and slow dissolution in aqueous solutions. In this study‚ Clotrimazole was incorporated in jambhul honey microemulsion formulation without causing instability of the emulsion. The solubility of Clotrimazole in various oils‚ surfactants and cosurfactants was assessed to finalize the components of the w/o and o/w microemulsions. The pseudoternary

The Rhizoctonia solani complex represents an economically important group of soilborne plant pathogens that can cause infection on many plant species throughout the world (Whisson et al 1995; Sneh et al. 1996 ). The pathogens are mainly perpetuated through infected propagation materials‚ originating from infected plants (Maas‚ 1984). Once the plants get infection‚ sclerotia of the pathogen are surrounded by sloughed plant cells‚ thus improving their survival rate in soil (Maas‚ 1984). It can persist
