Abstract

Counts of CFU of microfungi, percent carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, sodium, potassium, and calcium content, and pH were determined in upland, transect, and bottom soils, the transitional zone of Gujar Lake, a subtropical and eutrophic lake in India (25°58′N, 82°39′E). Microfungi in all zones were distributed in aggregate pattern, as evidenced by significant t values (P > 0.001) and F ratios (P > 0.001) of the variance–mean test and Morisita's index. A qualitative survey revealed that Alysidium sp., Arthrinium phaeospermum, Gliomastix murorum, Pythium sp., Tliermomyces sp., Thielavia terricola, Westerdykella multispora, and Varicosporium elodae were found specific to bottom soil of the lake. Key words: distribution, microfungi, transitional zone, subtropical, correlation.
