Abstract

Highlights: Native Brazilian Myrtaceae species are promising against Thielaviopsis ethacetica fungus. Percentages of mycelial inhibition above 80% were observed. Promising Myrtaceae extracts inhibited conidial germination. 13 metabolites are annotated in the polar extract of Myrcia amazonica. Flavonoids are predominant in Myrciaria floribunda extract according to LC-HRMS/MS analysis.
