    Mycological Quality of Noni (Morinda citrifolia) Foliar Infection and Susceptibility to a Novel agent
    Author(s): Amadi Lawrence O* and Seth Mercy O

    Foliar infection of Noni poses a great challenge to farmers, microbiologists and phytopathologists despite the broad spectrum of bioactive and therapeutic potentials of the plant. This study investigates the mycological quality of Noni foliar infection and susceptibility to a novel agent (Alum). The mycological quality was assessed by culture-dependent technique using standard mycological procedures and susceptibility of isolates determined by disc and agar well diffusion methods and inhibition zones (IZs) were measured in millimetre. Fungi identified include Aspergillus flavus, A. fumigatus, A. niger and Penicillium species. Relative abundance (%) of fungal species in foliar infection were A. fumigatus (75%) being the most abundant followed by A. niger and A. flavus (50%) respectively and Penicillium .. View more»
