Evaluation of fodder plants (Ficus polita, Azadirachta indica and Vernonia amygdalina) for their phytochemical and antibacterial properties
In Nigeria, fodder plants are important components of ruminant feeding systems. The wide arrays of secondary metabolites in them are potential source of antibacterial materials; if harnessed, could serve as alternative to conventional antibiotics. This study was designed to evaluate the phytochemica...
