For more than 40 years fungi have been known to produce pigments known as melanins. Predominantly these have been dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA)-melanin and dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN)-melanin. The biochemical and genetical analysis of the biosynthesis pathways have led to the identification of the ge

The mycoflora of air-dried grains of Sorghum guineense and their importance in pathogenicity were studied. Nine species of both phytopathogens and saprophytic storage fungi were consistently obtained. The pathogenic fungi included Cladosporium vignae GARDNER, Macrophominn phaseolina (TASSI) GOID and
