Abstract
The results of phytoexamination of the seeds of milk thistle (Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertn.), which were grown in the Poltava region (Ukraine), are presented. Indicators of seed quality, degree of infection and species composition of pathogenic microorganisms were studied. 7 species of fungi have been identified, which according to classification belong to two classes: Deuteromycetes (species of the genera Fusarium, Alternaria, Botrytis, Sordariomycetes) and Zygomycetes (representatives of the genus Mucor). Fungi from the genera Alternaria and Mucor predominated among the detected micromycetes. Fungi of the genera Fusarium, Botrytis and Stachybotrys were less common.
