  abstract = {{A}mong the most common plants used by fish farmers in {J}ava, 18 were selected for deeper ethnobotanical and laboratory investigation into their antimicrobial activity. {T}hese plants are mainly used against fish diseases, but with no precise therapeutic indication, leading to low specificity of use. {L}eaves, which were the most commonly used part of plants, were generally placed directly in water or less frequently added to the feed. {D}isk diffusion tests showed that 15 plants of the 18 (83%) displayed varying degrees of antibacterial activity and that {S}treptococcus agalactiae was more sensitive than {A}eromonas hydrophila. {C}rude ethanolic extracts ({EE}) were more active than water macerates ({WM}), and minimum inhibitory concentrations ({MIC}s) ranged from 12.5 to 25mg/m{L}. {O}nly the {EE} of {P}iper betle had an inhibitory effect against {A}. hydrophila. {N}o {MIC} was found for any of the {WM} studied here. {F}urthermore, both the {EE} and, to a lesser extent, the {WM} of active plants were able to reduce bacterial growth by more than 99%, even at doses below their {MIC}s. {T}hese results suggest that these plant extracts have a potential for eco-friendly prevention of bacterial fish diseases.},
