Biogenic Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles (AgNPs) Using Aqueous Leaf Extract of Buchanania lanzan Spreng and Evaluation of Their Antifungal Activity against Phytopathogenic Fungi

Table 2

Antifungal activity of AgNPs on in vitro mycelial growth of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici.

Treatment	% inhibition mycelia growth^a
Control^b	0.0^D
50 ppm	9.09 ± 0.65^C
100 ppm	20.70 ± 0.14^B
150 ppm	47.08 ± 0.67^A

^aEach value is the mean of the three replicates. Mean ± SE followed by the same letter in the column of each treatment represents no significant difference at by the Tukey–Kramer HSD test. % inhibition rate was calculated compared with mycelial growth of the control (0%). ^bControl without any formulation. The observations were recorded after 5 days of incubation.
