Sažetak

Naturally occurring antimicrobals are becoming more and more desirable mainly because they are less toxic for humans. Therefore, researches that are trying to substitute fungicides with essential oils are very popular. Essential oils or their components show antifungal and antimycotoxinogenic properties. Antifungal activity was especially observed in essential oils rich in phenolic compounds while the cell membrane is the main site of their action. The effectiveness of essential oils depends on abiotic and biotic environmental conditions.
