Eighteen fungal species were isolated from rhizospheric soil and rhizoplane samples of three plant crops in southern Iraq. The fungal isolates were examined for the activities of four enzymes (amylase, cellulase, phenoloxidase, and protease), as well as their growth, against crude garlic extract added to the culture agar medium. A high reduction or inhibition of enzymatic activities was observed for the fungi treated with garlic extract compared with untreated fungal cultures. However, most of the species showed inhibition of enzymes due to the effect of garlic extract. The growth of the fungal species was also remarkably reduced by the garlic extract.
从伊拉克南部三种农作物的根际土壤和根表样本中分离出了18种真菌。检测了这些真菌分离株针对添加到培养基中的粗蒜提取物的四种酶（淀粉酶、纤维素酶、酚氧化酶和蛋白酶）的活性以及它们的生长情况。与未处理的真菌培养物相比，用蒜提取物处理的真菌的酶活性有很大程度的降低或受到抑制。然而，由于蒜提取物的作用，大多数物种的酶都受到了抑制。蒜提取物也显著降低了真菌物种的生长。
