Abstract

Seed health testing by studying the seed-borne fungi of soybean seeds is an important
step in the management of the seed-borne diseases. In the present study seed-borne
fungi was studied by using agar plate method. A number of seed-borne fungal species
was isolated from the agar plate. These seed-borne fungal sps. were Aspergillus niger, A.
flavus, A. fumigatus, Chaetomium globosum, Curvularia lunata, C. geniculata, Nigrospora
sphaerica, Macrophomina phaseolina, Penicillium sp., P. citrinum, Rhizopus nigricans,
