10.22376/ijpbs.2019.10.1.p1-12 Volume 7 Issue 1 2016 (January - March) The present study was carried out to investigate the outdoor airborne fungal spore genera circulating in the 5 different sites situated at Tumkur city, Karnataka state, India. Sampling was carried out by Andersen two stage sampler using a Malt Extract Agar (MEA) media were collected fortnightly from January to June, 2015. A total of 2326.11 CFU/m lessThan sup greaterThan 3 lessThan /sup greaterThan airborne fungi recorded. The most common airborne fungal spores in outdoor environment were lessThan i greaterThan Aspergillus lessThan /i greaterThan sp., lessThan i greaterThan Aspergillus niger lessThan /i greaterThan , lessThan i greaterThan Alternaria lessThan /i greaterThan sp., lessThan i greaterThan Alternaria alternata lessThan /i greaterThan , lessThan i greaterThan Cladosporium lessThan /i greaterThan sp., lessThan i greaterThan Cladosporium herbarum lessThan /i greaterThan , lessThan i greaterThan C. cladosporioides, Curvularia lessThan /i greaterThan sp, lessThan i greaterThan Fusarium lessThan /i greaterThan sp., lessThan i greaterThan Mucor lessThan /i greaterThan sp, lessThan i greaterThan Nigrospora lessThan /i greaterThan sp, lessThan i greaterThan Penicillium lessThan /i greaterThan sp, lessThan i greaterThan Rhizopus lessThan /i greaterThan sp, lessThan i greaterThan Trichoderma lessThan /i greaterThan species and 1 unidentified genera species were observed. The present study helped to determine the airborne fungal spore genera and types present in the atmosphere of 5 different sites, which may useful for physician to identify the cause of fungal spores related problem affecting the human health and environmental sustainability.
