Six endophytic fungi were isolated from Cupressus torulosa D.Don and identified phenotypically and genotypically. The fungal cultures were further grown and the culture was extracted by two organic solvents methanol and ethyl acetate. The screening was carried out using the agar well diffusion method against human pathogen such as Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Bacillus subtilis and ...

In a study on coprophilous fungi, different samples including cow, sheep and horse dung and mouse feces were collected from different locations in West and East Azarbaijan provinces (NW Iran). Isolation of the fungi was done based on moist chamber culture method. Purification of the isolated fungi was done by single spore culture method. Several fungal taxa were obtained. Identification of the ...

raisins are dried grapes that may be eaten raw or used in cooking, baking and brewing as an ingredient. iran is one of the major exporters of raisins in recent years and iranian raisins are exported to many countries. it is important to ensure of microbiological quality and safety of raisins. the aim of this study was isolation and identification of mycoflora from main raisin’s varieties (poloi...

Orchidaceous plants have symbiotic relationships with endophytic fungi, including mycorrhizal fungi, which play important roles in the seed germination and growth of the host plants. In this study, endophytic fungal communities isolated from the roots of Cephalanthera longibracteata collected from three different sites in Korea were analyzed, and it was determined whether fungal communities wer...

During this research, a comprehensive survey of tree growing areas of Faisalabad district of Pakistan was conducted to observe the symptoms, spectrum, occurrence and severity of A. nilotica and E. camaldulensis decline. Objective of current research was to investigate specific fungal pathogens involved in decline of A. nilotica and E. camaldulensis. For this purpose, infected roots, bark, neck ...

PURPOSE Analysis of incidence of fungal pathogens in air of Department of Dermatology, Venereology and Allergology of Medical University in Wrocław. MATERIAL AND METHODS Materials for the tests were: the air samples in front of the building, corridors, library, lecture hall, and mycological laboratory. The air pollution was determined using SAS SUPER 100. Humidity and temperature were evaluat...

Strains of hydrocarbon-degrading microorganisms (bacteria and fungi) were isolated from an agricultural soil in France. In a field, a portion was treated with oily cuttings resulting from the drilling of an onshore well. The cuttings which were spread at the rate of 600 g HC m-2 contained 10% of fuel oil hydrocarbons (HC). Another part of the field was left untreated. Three months after HC spre...

Decline disease has been discovered for a long time but infection is more extensively increasing. It difficult to detect because the originated from roots. Among causes, soil fungi have widely determined. Using fungicides not an effective way control disease. In this case, biocontrol with suitable microbial strains potential approach. This study aims investigate in vitro possibility of using Tr...
