Abstract

Coffee is one of the most commercialized products in Mexico and the world. In recent years, the coffee market has suffered great economic losses due to the presence of coffee rust, whose causal agent is the fungus Hemileia vastatrix. The use of fungicides is the most widely used control method. However, all these contribute to environmental pollution and generate adverse effects on humans. Therefore, it is necessary to find alternatives to eradicate or mitigate the incidence of coffee rust. In this work, the fungicidal activity of Azadiracta indica extracts against Hemileia vastatrix spores was evaluated in the search for an alternative to control coffee rust. Additionally, four compounds of Azadiracta indica were isolated, trilinolein, stigmasterol, stigmasterol glycoside and azadirachtin A, which could not be evaluated due to the small amount obtained.
