Seedborne mycoflora of faba bean ( L.) and evaluation of plant extract and species against mycelium growth of selected fungi.

Fungal diseases are among the biotic factors limiting the production of faba bean in Ethiopia. The objective of this study was to isolate and identify seedborne mycoflora associated with faba bean seed samples, determine their effects on seed germination and disease transmission, and evaluate the antimicrobial activities of seven plant extracts and four spp. against the pathogen isolated from the seed.
