results significant differences were observed in the results of co-culture of nematodes larva and fungi after seven days. the most effective fungi against the nematodes larvae were cladosporium sp., trichoderma sp., fusarium equisetti, after seven days of incubation. materials and methods sheep feces were employed to provide the required third stage larvae source for the experiments. the nemato...

Abstract Background This study was carried out to investigate the antifungal activity of chitinase produced by Streptomyces species isolated from grassland soils against selected pathogenic fungi, namely: Magnaporthe oryzae , Fusarium graminearum Rhizoctonia solani Puccinia and Botyrtis cinerea . Chitinase albus purified consecutively with dialysis, gel filtration ion- exchange chromatography, ...

background: arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (amf) have the potential to optimize the rhizospheric soil characteristics considerably thereby affecting plant growth. objectives: the aim is to investigate the effects of fungi inoculation (glomus intraradices) on morphological, physiological and phytochemical traits of rosemary (rosemarinus officinalis l.) under salt stress. methods: a factorial exper...

Background and Purpose: Fungal contamination in damp places in buildings has become an increasing problem worldwide. Dampness facilitates the growth of fungi, which can cause adverse effects not only on the buildings but also on their occupants. The aim of this study was to identify indoor mold species in the buildings of Kerman province, Iran. Materials and Methods: In this study, 110 samples...

Understanding plant-microbe relationships can be important for developing management strategies for invasive plants, particularly when these relationships interact with underlying variables, such as habitat type and seedbank density, to mediate control efforts. In a field study located in California, USA, we investigated how soil microbial communities differ across the invasion front of Taeniat...

Priority effects - the impact of a species' arrival on subsequent community development - have been shown to influence species composition in many organisms. Whether priority effects among arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) structure fungal root communities is not well understood. Here, we investigated whether priority effects influence the success of two closely related AMF species (Rhizophagu...

fungi are found in different environments with variable distribution patterns depending on various factors. the aim of this study was determination of fungal contaminants in public swimming pools in uromia, iran. the fungal contaminations of four indoor swimming pools were studied by using membrane filtration and swab sampling method. samples were collected by a manual plastic pump, in a 200 ml...

Fusarium spp. is a genus of fungi that causes disease in many plants so special attention, handling and control needed for this pathogen. Morphological observations are to provide an overview macroscopic microscopic morphological variations be used as basic information the development program. The research aims determine characteristics several highlands North Sumatra. was conducted at Laborato...

background facultative marine fungi could potentially be arsenic tolerant and may be able to remove this highly poisonous metal from the environment. objectives the objective of this work was to explore the degree of tolerance and removal efficiency of two facultative marine fungi. materials and methods facultative marine fungi aspergillus flavus and rhizopus spp. were exposed to 25 mg/l and 50...

The isolated fungi species of different kinds from chromium contaminated soil sites located in Nagalkeni, Chennai were used for reducing chromium(VI) in a tannery industry wastewater of Nagalkeni, Chennai.  The experiments were conducted to know biosorption potential of isolated fungi species for removing chromium(VI) in a tannery industry wastewater against the different pH, fungi biomass and ...
