Abstract: The inhibiting effects of extracts from 22 plant species to Sphaerotheca f uliginea were tested on cucumberseedlings with two cotyledons each.The results showed that extracts from 8 plant species were more inhibitory to S. fuligineathan the others, with EC50 lower than 0. 5%. Among the 8 extracts, the preventive effects of 6 plant extracts exceptArtemisia capillaries and Portulaca oleracea were higher than their curative effects.The preventive effects of 1. 25%extractfrom the 8 plants were higher than that( 74. 42%) of 100 ??g/mL triadimefon. 1. 25% extract from Cortex phellodendri , P .cablin , Portulaca oleracea, Fructus cnidii and Kadsura japonic exhibited the curative effect of as high as 82% to S . fuliginea,higher than that( 78. 89%) of 100 ??g/ mL triadimefon.
