Abstract
Foeniculum vulgare belongs to family Apiaceae and is also called by the name of fennel. Agar disc diffusion method was used to determine the antifungal activity of its seed extracts in water and methanol against a number of pathogenic fungi. Methanolic extract of fennel seeds was less effective against test fungi as compared to its aqueous extract. However in case of Candida species, both types of extracts were found to be effective.
