The study assessed Mentha piperita essential oil (MpEO) for its pesticidal efficacy against fungal and insect pests. The chemical profile of MpEO exhibited menthol (46.82%) as major components. The MIC of MpEO against toxigenic fungal isolate Aspergillus flavus LHPCA-08 was recorded at 0.5 mg/ml concentration and also checked aflatoxin B1 production at 0.3 mg/ml concentration as well as showed broad spectrum fungitoxicity (1.0 mg/ml) against all the tested moulds.

The toxicants (fungicide and botanicals) showing maximum efficacy against the pathogen and minimum efficacy against milky mushroom (Calocybe indica) mycelia as per results of in vitro studies were further evaluated against T. harzianum under in vivo condition in mushroom house. Among fungicides only Bavistin (@150 ppm) and out of three botanicals only Nimbicidin (@4 per cent) were selected for management of the green mould disease in milky mushroom cultivation in bags.
