Evaluation of natural products as potential agrochemical agents with insecticide, fungicide and herbicide activities
The present work aims to identify new promising plant sources, which could be exploited for their agrochemical properties. A total of 484 natural products from academic libraries were selected for screening against four fungal pathogens, five insects and two plants. On the basis of the hits founded and a literature survey, the flora of source countries (New Caledonia, French Guiana, Madagascar, Panama, South Africa and Greece) was analysed for plants containing the desired scaffolds. Lists of 1800 plant part samples were thus established. The plant parts collected generated 3600 extracts that are being evaluated.
