Mycoflora associated

Mycotoxins are toxic food pollutants that are created naturally by some fungus. By contaminating food, they have a harmful impact on human health. This study's major objective was to simulate food products from bakeries being contaminated. Separate bakery food samples were examined to see whether fungus and associated mycotoxins were present.

Mungbean is grown principally for its protein content. Seed borne mycoflora affect the germination and vigour of seeds. Thus, due to seed borne diseases, there is a reduction in the production, resulting in failure of fulfilling the demand of mungbean seeds. The associated seed borne mycoflora were found to reduce the germination and thereby seedling vigour index. Fungicides and Trichoderma were found to increase the vigour index by keeping mycoflora under check and plant growth promoting activities of Trichoderma.

Groundnut is an important food legume in several developing and developed countries. In India, Telangana state is one of the major groundnut growing states. A survey was conducted to collect a total of 72 groundnut pod samples at the time of harvesting from farmers and local markets in four districts, namely; Karimnagar, Warangal, Nizamabad, Mahabubnagar during 2015-16.

Onion being important vegetable crop grown in India is preferred mainly because of its green leaves, immature and mature bulbs which are either eaten raw or cooked as a vegetable. Post-harvest losses due to desiccation, decay and sprouting possess a great threat for effective economic use of onion.

Green gram is used as one of the important source of protein along with other pulses. The potential yield is affected by many seed borne pathogen. Stored and freshly harvested green gram seeds from different places of Odisha were collected to study the association of different fungal pathogen. Five fungal pathogens i.e. Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus flavus, Fusarium sp, Rhizoctonia sp and a sterile mycelium were found to be associated with seeds.

Horse gram (Macrotyloma uniflorum), belongs to the family Fabaceae is one of the minor or lesser known neglected legume mainly cultivated due to high levels of protein. It is considered as poor man’s pulse. Horse gram has an excellent nutritional, therapeutic and medicinal properties. Field variety of horse gram seeds were collected from the Indurthi village, Kharimnagar district, Telangana, India. The legume seed borne fungi was screened by employing blotter paper method, agar plate method and dilution plate method.

The present study describes physicochemical characterization and rhizosphere soil mycoflora in the field of onion white rot caused by Sclerotium cepivorum. Soil fungi in onion infected field need to improve knowledge of diversity of fungi associated with white rot of onion. Infected rhizosphere soil, sixteen physicochemical parameters were analysed. It founds alkaline pH but EC, N, Ca, Na, B, S and Mo contents were found least whereas OC, P, K, Zn and Cu high in infected soil as compared to standard range.

Like other crops, pea varieties were also harbour the seed borne mycoflora resulted in less germination and plant vigour index. Six varieties of pea and one local variety were taken in the present investigation to assess the seed health by incubation methods. It was found that varying degree and type of mycoflora associated with pea seeds were recorded.

A study was conducted to determine the mycoflora associated with pigeon pea cultivar MA6 and effect of botanicals on growth of mycoflora. The dominant fungi observed on pigeon pea cultivar MA6 seed were Rhizopus stolonifer, Aspergillus niger, A. flavus, Penicillium citrinum, P. rubrum, Alternaria alternata, A. solani, Curvularia lunata, Fusarium oxysporium. Among the treatments, the sulphate and nitrate treated seeds showed the less number of fungi isolated in comparison to untreated seeds. The nature of fungal flora had changed with prolongation of storage period of pigeonpea seeds.

Mycoflora and mycotoxins contamination of different cattle feed samples of north Telangana region was analysed both quantitatively and qualitatively. The feed samples were highly infested by A. flavus, A. terreus and Penicillium species. The incidence of the rest of the fungi varied with the type of sample and the place of collection. The toxigenic potential of different mycotoxigenic fungi varied with substratum. The strains of A. flavus, A. terreus and Penicillium citrinum elaborated aflatoxin, patulin, terreic acid and citrinin respectively.
