Abstract
The biological activity of eight peptide extracts of medicinal plants is tested under laboratory conditions with the use of a number of test systems to determine their ability to inhibit growth and development of a number of phytopathogenic fungi and oomycetes. A multicomponent extract consisting of individual extracts of field horsetail, elecampane, and greater celandine is the most effective.
