ABSTRACT: Were investigated aquatic extracts and essential oils obtained from some plants (Agropyrum repens L, Apium graveolens L., Artemisia absinthium L., Mentha piperita L.) included in the flora of Azerbaijan on the growth of toxigenic fungi. It was determined that both materials obtained from the studied plants affects on the growth of toxigenic fungi. Although the effects of aqueous extract are fungistatic, the effects of essential oils are characterized as fungicidal activity. In the case of adding 0.01% of essential oil obtained from the Mentha piperita L. to the medium, the growth of all toxigenic fungi stops. This allowed us to note that the use of preparation obtained from same plant against of toxigenic fungi in the future is respectively.
