In recent years, tulip flowers have been grown extensively in parks and green spaces of Urmia city (NW Iran). During the surveys in a period from 2014–16, characteristic symptoms of the blue mold rot were observed on both planted and stored tulip bulbs, as the bulbs were covered with a white to bluish-green mycelia and spores. In order to determine the fungi associated with tulip bulbs (Tulipa ...

background: based on the information no research has been done on the identification and isolation of anaerobic fungi in the baloochi sheep’s rumen in the dry climate up to now. objectives: the purpose of this research was the separation and study of the appearance morphology of anaerobic fungi in the baloochi sheep’s rumen in sistan region. methods: the semi-defined medium environment was used...

A total of 161 fungal isolates were obtained from the surface-sterilized roots of field-grown oat and wheat plants in order to investigate the nature of the root-colonizing fungi supported by these two cereals. Fungi were initially grouped according to their colony morphologies and then were further characterized by ribosomal DNA sequence analysis. The collection contained a wide range of ascom...

In the present study, the occurrence and species diversity of insect-associated fungi in soil collected mainly from forest habitats in different regions of China were compared by using the ‘Galleria biat method’. Insect-associated fungi were defined to include known insect pathogenic fungi, opportunistic pathogens and secondary colonizers isolated from the Galleria mellonella bait insect expose...

Endophytic fungi, isolated from a number of different species of tropical plants, were investigated for lipid biodiesel precursor production. The extracts produced from liquid cultures of these fungi were subjected to acidcatalyzed transesterification reactions with methanol producing methyl esters and then analyzed through chromatographic (GC-FID) and spectrometric techniques (MS, NMR ¹H). The...

onychomycosis due to the yeast and yeast-like fungi was investigated among the 147 patient who refered to the mycology laboratory of school of public health during the period of 11 months. the isolated yeasts and yeast-like fungi were examined by api auxanogram methed. the distribution of isolated microorganisms were c. tropicalis 10(7.4%), c.guillioimondii & (5.9%) cases and one case of each o...

in this study, 42 samples of silage were collected in qaemshahr city in iran during fall 2011. samples were tested by competitive elisa for total aflatoxins. seven samples (16.7%) (mean±se:1.24) from 42 silage samples were positive with total aflatoxin (1.1-27.3 ppb) in nov., dec. and oct. the highest contamination was observed in oct., three samples (21.4%) from 14 samples were contaminated wi...

The occurrence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistance encourages the discovery new antitubercular candidates. Microbes including fungi and bacteria are well known reservoir for isolating antibiotic compounds, among natural product resources. In this review, we report promising compounds from marine-derived entomopathogenic fungi, reported 2000 to 2022. A comprehensive literature search was co...

UNLABELLED Denitrifying fungi produce nitrous oxide (N2O), a potent greenhouse gas, as they generally lack the ability to convert N2O to dinitrogen. Contrary to the case for bacterial denitrifiers, the prevalence and diversity of denitrifying fungi found in the environment are not well characterized. In this study, denitrifying fungi were isolated from various soil ecosystems, and novel PCR pri...
