Linear growth was recorded at 24 hours intervals after inoculation and average growth rates were calculated. Fresh weight and dry weight were also recorded. The highest linear growth, fresh weight and dry weight were found in potato dextrose agar and lowest in water agar. The highest values were followed by modified potato dextrose agar which was statistically similar to carrot agar which was differed and followed by cornmeal agar.
