Abstract
Fungal contamination associated with some dried fruits in Iran
Highlights
The wide range of temperatures and different climatic zones in Iran made the possibility to cultivate a diverse variety of crops
Single spore colonies were transferred into Potato dextrose agar (PDA), synthetic nutrient poor agar (SNA), and 2% malt-extract agar (MEA) media; and incubated at 25°C under continuous fluorescent light to promote their sporulation
49 fungal isolates were recovered on PDA plates including mainly eight fungal species that were identified as; Alternaria alternata, A. tenuissima, Arthrinium arundinis, Cladosporium cladosporioides, Clastospora gossypii var
Summary
The wide range of temperatures and different climatic zones in Iran made the possibility to cultivate a diverse variety of crops. The present investigation aimed to isolate and identify fungal species associated with some dried fruits; collected from different common markets in some regions of Iran. PDA plates from samples of dried fruits such as; Common fig (Ficus carica), Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera), and White Mulberry (Morus alba), according to Ho and Ko, (1997). 49 fungal isolates were recovered on PDA plates including mainly eight fungal species that were identified as; Alternaria alternata, A. tenuissima, Arthrinium arundinis, Cladosporium cladosporioides, Clastospora gossypii var.
