Water and acetone extracts of the leave of Law.s'om'a inermfs L., the peels of I’um'ca grrmamm L. and calcium carbonate (I%). alone or in combination were used against the fungus Aspergiflusfimiigams radial growth, sporulation and spore germination. The combination of acetone extracts ol‘ 1.. incrnu'.s' and P. gramrmm, and that ol‘ CaCO3 alone, were found to be the most effective against /t._/i.rmigam.s'. The acetone extract of L. incrmris‘ was very effective inhibitor of radial growth of the fungus when used alone or in combination with other treatments. The water extract of L. :'nermi.s‘ and P. granamm increased sporulation and spore germination olithe fungus. It was concluded that the acetone extracts of 1;. inernris and I’. grrimmrm alone or in combination with CaC()3 were considered to have a good in vitro antifungai activity agains
