Isolation and Identification of Extra-aquatic, Pathogenic Fungi from the Polluted Water of Munneru River, Telangana, India

Abstract

Munneru is a small River and flows through Dornakal Eru, Kaamanchkal and Daanavaayigudem areas of Khammam district, Telangana, India. Munneru is a major water source, the river is so much polluted with the domestic, factories and municipal solid wastes. Surface water samples were collected from three locations of the river. Water samples were cultured immediately. Potato dextrose agar medium was used for culturing. 50 species and 18 genera were isolated. Aspergillus spp, Curvularia spp, Drechslera spp, Fusarium spp, Pencillium spp, Trichoderma spp, were the dominant species isolated from the polluted waters of Munneru River.
