This study aims the determination of antifungal activity and the flavonoids content of extracts from carpophores of
some wild and cultivated fungi.
The work was conducted on Wild fungi (Fomes fomentarius, Hericiumerinaceus, Schizophyllum commune, Plerotus ostreatus
were collected in Tunisia from Ain Drahem (Northern west), Tbainia (Northern west), Kef Rand (Northern east), and Tunis
regions. Cultivated mushroom were Pleurotus ostreatus and Lentinus edodes (Shiitake) species from Ain Drahem. Cultivation of
these last two species was realized on logs of Populus sp. and Quercus canariensis respectively. The total flavonoid content of
crude extract was determined by the aluminium chloride colorimetric method.
