In this work, the fungicide action ofnanocomposites based on silver nanoparticles and polyphenol inclusion compounds, which featureenhanced bioavailability and water solubility, was assayed for the control of this soil-borne watermold. Inclusion compounds were prepared by an aqueous two-phase system separation methodthrough extraction, either in an hydroalcoholic solution with chitosan oligomers (COS) or in a cholinechloride:urea:glycerol deep eutectic solvent (DES). The new inclusion compounds were synthesizedfrom stevioside and various polyphenols (gallic acid, silymarin, ferulic acid and curcumin), in a [6:1]ratio in the COS medium and in a [3:1] ratio in the DES medium, respectively. Their in vitro responseagainst Phytophthora cinnamomi isolate MYC43 (at concentrations of 125, 250 and 500 μg·mL−1) wastested, which found a significant mycelial growth inhibition, particularly high for the compositesprepared using DES. Therefore, these nanocomposites hold promise as an alternative to fosetyl-Aland metalaxyl conventional systemic fungicides.
