Abstract
The present work deals with the isolation and identification of pathogenic fungi. The fungal isolates were Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium solani, Fusarium incarnatum, Carynospora cassiicola, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Alternaria spp, Cladosporium cladosporoides, Mucor flavus, Trichoderma spp. and Aspergillus Niger. These were isolated from Solanaceous vegetable crops like chilli, tomato and brinjal and were identified on the basis of colony morphology and microscopic examination on PDA medium. The morphological characteristics of these fungal elements showed various kinds of spores which was identified up to genus/species level. Out of 10 isolated fungi, all were pathogenic except A. Niger and Trichoderma spp which are saprophytes.
