โฆ Synopsis
100 species and 2 varieties ofA. nidulans which belong to 35 genera were identified from 40 samples of barley collected from different places in Upper Egypt. Two methods of isolation were used: the grain-and the dilution plate. The spectrum of fungal genera and species collected by the former (35 genera, 96 species + 1 variety) was broader than by the latter method (28 genera, 76 species + 1 variety). Nine genera were of high occurrence (represented in more than 50 % of the samples) namely,

Seventy-five species in addition to 5 varieties of cellulose-decomposing which belong to 27 genera were collected during this investigation. Aspergillus (12 species + 4 varieties), Alternaria (4 species), Stachybotrys (3 species + 1 variety), and Penicillium (12 species) were of high frequency of oc
From 40 peanut seed samples collected in Egypt, forty-three species and one variety of fungi, belonging to 16 genera, were collected. The most dominant genera were Aspergillus (11 species + one variety), Penicillium (11 species) and Fusarium (4 species). From the preceding genera A. fumigatus, A. fl
Ninety two fungal species recovered on cellulose -CZAPEK'S agar plates from Egyptian soils were assayed for their cellulolytic activities either at 28 "C (mesophilic) or at 45 "C (thermophilic or thermotolerant). The percentage increase of protein-nitrogen over those of control was taken as a measur
