Ehrenb. and Trichoderma viride Pers. ex Gray. Fusarium semitectum showed the highest (28.61) per cent association frequency in Sabri variety whereas Fusarium sp. showed the lowest (3.33). Curvularia brachyspora showed the highest (21.11) per cent frequency in Champa variety whereas A. fumigatus showed the lowest (2.78). Fusarium sp. showed the highest (41.67) per cent frequency in Sagor variety whereas T. viride showed the lowest (3.34). Among the isolated fungi C. musae, C. brachyspora, F. semitectum, Fusarium sp. and P. disseminata were found to be pathogenic to three banana varieties. The presence of Pestalotiopsis disseminata (Thum) Steyaert in Sabri variety of banana is the first record in Bangladesh. Dhaka Univ. J. Biol. Sci. 26(1): 101-110, 2017 (January)

This study was conducted to assess the outdoor air quality of some urban slums in Port Harcourt. Six sampling sites were selected, from the Port Harcourt urban slums; two sites from each slum represented with a suffix 1 or 2.  The slums are designated Marine base (#1 and #2), RSU BG, Obudu 2, Bundu (#1 and #2). The air quality was analyzed using portable handheld air quality analyzer and the microbiological parameters were determined by standard cultural method. The study revealed that the sampled sites were laden with bacterial and fungal species. namely; Klebsiella sp., Micrococcus sp., Escherichia sp., Pseudomonas sp., Baccilus sp., Aeromonas sp., Streptococus sp., Serratia sp., Aerococcus sp., Proteus sp. Penicillium sp., Fusarium sp., Candida sp., Aspergillus sp., Mucor sp., Rhizopus sp. and Tricorderma sp. Highest obtained noise level was at Marine base 1 which was  66 db, highest relative humidity of 54.8% at RSU BG, CO2  (ppm) values of 4.8, 80, 796, 850, 638, 698 for Marine base 2, Marine base 1, Obudu 2, RSU BG, Bundu 1 and Bundu 2 respectively. The values for NO2 (ppm) was (0.05, 0.053, 0.071, 0.022, 0.035, 0.023), suspended particulate matter (ppm) was (7.1, 8.7, 9.5, 9.5, 6.2, 6.2), SO2 (ppm) was (0.42, 0.15, 0.50, 0.34, 1.26, 0.41) CO (ppm) was (4.8, 1.7, 2.2, 3.0, 3.9, 3.6) and volatile organic compound (ppm) was (1.0, 1.1, 0.9, 75 and 1.2). This study has shown that Port Harcourt urban slums are experiencing some degree of contamination not acceptable for healthy living that requires attention to curb. These areas require all-round improvement in sanitation.   M Give one sentence on methodology.

A conscientização ecológica globalizada exige alimentos mais naturais, o que tem levado ao aprimoramento de medidas de controle integrado, através do uso de métodos alternativos para a produção de sementes livres de resíduos tóxicos. Com o objetivo de avaliar a micoflora e a qualidade fisiológica, sementes do algodoeiro (Gossypium hirsutum L.) com e sem línter, cultivares CNPA 7H e Precoce 2 foram tratadas, ou não, com os fungicidas químicos pentacloronitrobenzeno (PCNB), captan, benomyl e tolylfluanid, aplicados puros e também misturados ao extrato de aroeira (Astronium urundeuva L.) e avaliadas quanto à qualidade fisiológica (germinação, índices de velocidade de germinação e de emergência em campo) e à ocorrência de fungos. Utilizou-se o delineamento inteiramente casualizado em esquema fatorial 10x2x2 (tratamentos x cultivares x tipos de sementes), com quatro repetições. Sementes com línter de ambas as cultivares apresentaram menor qualidade fisiológica. O extrato de aroeira puro não controlou os fungos porém, quando associado aos fungicidas, captan, benomyl e tolylfluanid, reduziu a incidência de Aspergillus spp. e Fusarium sp. na cv. Precoce 2. Houve redução na viabilidade e no vigor das sementes deslintadas tratadas com o extrato de aroeira puro ou associado aos fungicidas. A micoflora foi constituída principalmente por: Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus sp., Fusarium sp. e Rhizopus sp.

Fungi are ubiquitous in distribution and are a serious threat to public health in indoor environments. The study was conducted to evaluate surface sampling in conjunction with air sampling for the detection of fungal contamination in Biology Department’s laboratoriesand determine the best detergent which treats with it. The study was carried out at the Biology Department, College of Science, Al-Mustansiriyah University, Baghdad. It was includes  (i) isolation fungal samples on Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) and identification these isolates by using morphological and microscopical characteristics and (ii) evaluation of three detergents on the most prevalent species of isolated fungi by using disk diffusion method and measuring the zone of inhibition against the tested isolate around each detergent.The results identified ten fungal species isolated from these laboratories, Alterneria sp., Aspergillusniger, Aspergillusflavus, Aspergillusterreus, Cladosporium sp., Penicillium sp., Rhizopus sp.,Fusarium sp., Geotrichum sp. andOxysporum sp.. Among all,Aspergillusniger was the more prevalent in all scanned laboratories. On the other hand, formalin when tested on A. nigerwas more effective than other detergents.We concluded that all tested laboratories had fungal contaminants due to numerous contamination sources. Formaldehyde fumigation will be very necessary to sterilize these laboratories.

Objetivo. Identificar microorganismos fitopatógenos presentes en las aguas utilizadas para riego en la cuenca media del rio Bogotá. Métodos. Las muestras fueron tomadas en doce fincas de la cuenca media y analizadas con la técnica de filtración por membrana. Las bacterias se identificaron por bioquímica y los hongos por claves dicotomas. Resultados. El agua de riego analizada contenía bacterias como: E.coli, P. vulgaris, A. urinae, E. cloacae, B.cereus, S. marcescens, B. brevis, y en cuanto a los hongos se encontraron: Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus flavus., Mucor sp., Rhizopus sp., Penicillium sp. y Fusarium sp. La presencia de estos potenciales fitopatógenos en el agua indican un alto riesgo de contaminación y dispersión de éstos en los cultivos.

Microflora from potato rhizosphere soil was isolated from different potato fields of Bangladesh. Seventeen soil samples were analyzed for the presence of microflora in selected potato field soils. Seven fungal species and one bacterium species were morphologically characterized using soil dilution and streak plate methods. The predominant fungi isolated including Alternaria sp., Aspergillus sp., Penicillium sp., Rhizopus sp., Bipolaris sp., Phytophthora sp., Fusarium sp. and one bacterium was identified as Ralstonia solanacearum. Individual colonies of fungi and bacteria were counted on Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA), V8 juice Agar and their presence in soil was compared in respect of different locations of potato fields. The occurrence of Phytophthora sp. was medium in Tongibari and lower in Singair Union, Sonargaon, Matlab Dakshin, Gobindaganj, Palashbari, Gopinathpur and Bagmara. The highest counts of R. solanacearum were found in Singair Union, Tongibari and Daudkandi and the lowest counts were made in Palashbari and Bagmara. This was the first reported examination of the microbial diversity of soil microflora in some selected potato fields of Bangladesh.
