An in vitro test indicated fungicidal properties in aqueous leaf extracts of Calotropis procera, Azadirachta indica, Lantana camara and Ocimum basilicum (out of 10 plant species screened) against Curvularia tuberculata and Alternaria alternata isolate 'A' obtained from fruits of pear and A. alternata isolate 'B' isolated from fruit of pomegranate (Punica granatum). An in vivo study revealed 64 to 85% control of fruit rot of pears and pomegranate.
