The antifungal activity of crude methanolic extract and fractions from Yucca smalliana Fern. leaves, roots and flowers were investigated in vitro against a panel of plant pathogenic fungi. The minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC) was determined by an agar dilution method. Preliminary liquid culture and agar plate assays showed that the growth of Fu sarium oxysporum, Phytophthora capsici, Rhizoctonia solani and Botrytis cinerea were inhibited by Y. smalliana extracts. The extracts from flowers and leaves showed antifungal activity of 64.0% and 34.0% against F. oxysporum, 66.0% and 62.0% against P. capsici, and 27.0% and 41.0% against B. cinerea, respectively. The methanolic extract from Y. smallina leaves in distilled water was fractionated using solvents of increasing polarity: hexane, ethyl acetate and butanol. These fractions had a broad spectrum of antifungal activity, found to reside entirely in the butanol and aqueous fraction. The aqueous fraction showed inhibition rate of 60.0, 67.8, 84.6 and 58.3% against F. oxysporum, R. solani, C. gloeosporioides, and B. cinerea, respectively, and the butganol fracgtion showed 36.0, 46.0, 66.1 and 58.3%, respectively. Phenolics(e.g. flavonoids, steroids and terpenoids) were observed in the thin layer profile of the different fractions. Leave extract showed a prominent antioxidant activity totally scavenging the free radical of DPPH at a concentration of 1 mg/ml.

본 연구의 목적은 내의 자생식물 중 살포활성이 있는 식물 종을 선발하는데 있다. 국내의 자생식물 55과 98종 시료로터 MeOH 조추출물을 얻은 다음 24-well plate에서 유채(Brassica napus L.)에 대한 살초검성을 수행하였다. 본 연구에 사용된 98종 중 놀은 살포활성($GR_{50}$ 값 < 1,000 ${\mu}g\;g^{-1}$)을 나타낸 식물은 가중나무(Ailanthus altissima (MILL.) SWINGLE), 고비(Osmunda japonica THUNB.), 더위지기(Artemisia iwayomogi KITAMURA), 두릅(Aralia elata SEEM.), 떡쑥(Gnaphalium affine D. DON), 미국산사나무(Crataegus scabrida SARG.), 사군자(Quisqualis indica L.), 센달나무(Machilus japonica S. et Z.), 소귀나무(Myrica rubra S. et Z.), 실육카(Yucca smalliana FERN.), 양버즘나무(Platanus occidentalis L.), 영춘화(Jasminum nudiflorum LINDL.), 유채(Brassica campestris subsp. napus var. nippo-oleifera MAKINO), 음나무(Kalopanax pictus (THUNB.) NAKAI), 자리공(Phytolacca esculenta V. Houtte), 장딸기(Rubus hirsutus THUNB.), 젓나무(Abies holophylla MAXIM.), 족도리풀(Asarum sieboldii MIQ.), 참으아리(Clematis terniflora DC.), 캐모마일(Anthemis nobilis L.) 등 20종으로 나타났다. 자생식물 98종 중 50종 식물은 중정도의 살초활성을 나타내었으나(1,000 ${\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ < $GR_{50}$ 값 < 2,000 ${\mu}g\;g^{-1}$), 28종 식물은 살초활성을 전혀 나타내지 않았다.
