Abstract

Among several plants from Brazilian native flora, there is Lobelia langeana Dusén, common herb in the states of Paraná and Santa Catarina, named as “lobélia”. This plant has several therapeutically properties, including a substitute of tobacco. A study was performed to determine its fungitoxicity, participating in alternative control methods of plant pathogens. In this preliminar assay, the effect of a lobelia extract was evaluated on the formation of leaf spots caused by Cylindrocladium spathulatum, in detached leaves of mate. The lobélia extract inhibited the development of foliar lesions in 48,9 %. This result showed lobelia extract could be tested for control of mate leaf spot, in field conditions.
