    Abstract

    Tecoma stans is a widely cultivated, cool season with climbing growth habit.In the present investigation an attempt was made to screen the anti-fungal activity of Tecoma stans leaf. In view of the percentage inhibition alsothe plant was studied, in which the plant extract was found effective. The antifungal activity was carried outusing different extracts of n-hexane,ethyl acetate and ethanolic against fungi such as aspergiilus niger and pencillium by the cup-plate assay method and zone of inhibition. The different extracts showedmoderate activity against zone of inhibition ofethanolic extract was aspergiilus niger and pencillium. The overall result of this studyindicates that the n-hexane,ethyl acetate and ethanolic extract of Tecoma stans have anti-fungal property.
