Abstract

Antibacterial activity of crude extracts and extracted phenols from sporophytic parts of litho-epiphytic fern Arthromeris wallichiana (Spreng.) Ching (family Polypodiaceae) were studied in summer and winter seasons against Bacillus subtilis AR-2 (Gr +ve) and Escherichia coli XL1-Blue (Gr-ve). Both the crude extracts and extracted phenols from sporophytic plant parts showed antibacterial activities. In summer the phenol content is less and in winter the phenol content is maximum. Detailed observations reveal that crude extracts show better antibacterial activity than extracted phenol.
