Mycoflora of phyllosphere

Elżbieta Chruściak

Abstract


The qualitative content of the mycoflora of the phyllosphere of Sambucus nigra, Tavaxaccum officinale, Secale cereale and Brassica napus was examined. The dominance of yeast-like fungi from the genera Trichosporon, Torulopsis and Rhodotorula on the leaves of Sambucus nigra and of Torulopsis on the leaves of Taraxaccum officinale was observed. In the phyllosphere of Secale cereale and Brassica napus the number of these fungi was more limited. An attempt was made to isolate strains capable of decomposition of proteins lipides, pectin and cellulose from the obtained fungi was made.
