Biodiversity of Mycoflora in Rhizosphere and Rhizoplane of Some Medicinal plants in Kanakapura, Ramanagar Dist, Karnataka
Subject area: Biological & Medical Sciences · Area of research: Botany
Abstract
The earth is home to a rich and diversity array of all living organisams,whose genetic diversity and relation ship with one another and their physical environement constitutes biodiversity of living organisams from all sources and ecological complexes of which they arepart, which includes within the species and between the species.Many soil micro-organisms are able to solubilize the unavailable phosphorus, increase uptake of nitrogen and also synthesize growth promoting hormones including auxin. Rhizosphere and rhizoplane of most of the plants is always rich in various populations of microorganisms. The microorganisms, on a continuous scale forms parasitic to mutualistic association with plants. In present study, we isolated rhizosphere and rhizoplane fungi from tthree medicinal plants species viz., Phyllanthus amarus, Coleus forskohii, Adhathoda vasica All three species found to grow in wild Kanakapura, Ramanagar Dist, Karnataka. A total of Twenty five species belongs to sixteen genera were isolated. Aspergillus, Fusarium, Penicillium, Alternaria, Cladosporium are the dominant genera observed during all three month period. Number of incidences of rhizosphere mycoflora were decreased from January to March; may be due to the decreasing soil moisture level, which is triggered by raise in soil and atmospheric temperature.
