Sixty-four species and 2 varieties which belong to nineteen genera of fungi were identified from 40 peanut seed samples collected from different places in Egypt by using a dilution-plate method on glucose-Czapek's medium. The most frequent genera were Aspergillus (21 species & 2 varieties), Penicill
Using four medium types (glucose-, cellulose-, 50% sucrose-and I0 % NaCl-CZAPEK'S agar), it was possible to isolate 15 fungal genera, 78 species and 6 varieties. The collective fungal spectrum varied from one medium to another where the highest number of species (57 species/1000 seeds) was obtained
Fifty-five species and two varieties appertaing to 23 genera were collected and identified from 4 samples of dried fig and 3 dried samples of each of apricot, plum and raisin. Forty-nine species and two varieties belonging to 20 genera were isolated on 1% glUCOSe-CZAPEK'S while 31 species and one va
120 species and 38 genera were collected from 64 samples of paddy grains on glucose-and cellulose-Czapek's agar at 28 ~ The total count of glycophilic and cellulose-decomposing fungi fluctuated between 216-29760; and 124-11320 colonies/g paddy grains on the two media, respectively.
