Phyllosphere microflora of some Egyptian plants

Phyllosphere microflora of some Egyptian plants

Abstract

The fungal and bacterial flora of the leaf surfaces of five plants growing in Egypt were studied. The fungal flora showed seasonal fluctuations with at least one peak. Twenty three genera with fifty three species were found, Aspergillus and Penicillium being most common. Other fungi showed variable percentages of the total count. Nitrogen-fixing bacteria were not isolated from the phyllosphere of the five plant species. Micrococci were most predominant among the epiphytic bacteria. Spore-forming bacteria and actinomycetes were less frequent on the leaf surfaces of the associalte plants.

Keywords

Bacteria, Aspergillus fumigatus, Fungi, Penicillium, Plants, Neurospora, Aspergillus, Fusarium, Species Specificity, Actinomyces, Egypt, Aspergillus niger, Seasons, Cladosporium, Aspergillus flavus, Micrococcaceae
