Screening of sheep faeces for isolating nematophagous fungi.

摘要

Faecal samples of sheep from farm and field flocks of semiarid and arid zones of Rajasthan were screened monthly for the presence of nematophagous fungi. Arthrobotrys oligospora was the most predominant in faecal samples collected from both farm and field sheep. Duddingtonia flagrans was isolated from 1 animal on a single occasion from the semi arid farm. Few isolates of Verticillium spp. were also encountered during the survey.
