The effect of aqueous leaf extracts of four plants, Argemone mexicana, Cyperus rotundus, Euphorbia hirta and Solanum nigrum, on growth and aflatoxin production by Aspergillus flavus was studied in SMKY liquid medium. All the plants inhibited aflatoxin production. No correlation between the growth of the fungus and aflatoxin synthesis was observed. The influence of these plants on the ratio of aflatoxin B1 to G1 is discussed.
