The efficient activity of plant essential oils for inhibiting Botrytis cinerea and Penicillium expansum: Mechanistic insights into antifungal activity.

Certain plant essential oils, specifically those from Thymus vulgaris and Origanum vulgare, have been found to effectively inhibit the growth of Botrytis cinerea and Penicillium expansum. These oils cause structural and functional damage to the fungi, making them potential alternatives to synthetic fungicides.
