Monsoon Fungal Airspora over Banana (Musa paradisica L.) Field at Nanded
Journal Title: International Journal of Life Science - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper constitutes the occurrence of various types of pathogenic and saprophytic fungi during monsoon. The airspora over the banana (Musa paradisica.L.) was continuously studied for a year (June 2010 – July 2011) but only monsoon airspora was undertaken in present investigation. Air sampling was carried out daily with the helping of Tilak air sampler. The airspora was with predominant spore types were of cladosporiun (28.91%), Alternaria (4.06%), curvularia (6.47%), Torula (2.37%), Aspergillus (1.07%) contributed highest percentage to the total airspora. The main aim of these experiment is to find out the, their concentration and disease incidence in relation to the meteorological parameters and growth stages of the crop. Daily record of temperature, relative humidity and rainfall maintained throughout the period of investigation.
