Description 138-142
From the Sunderban mangrove swamps, West Bengal, a good number of fungi were isolated from rhizosphere, rhizoplane and non-rhizosphere zones of mangroves, viz. Avicennia officinalis L., Carapa moluccensis Lam., Heritiera minor Lam. and Rhizophora mucronata Lam. pH and salinity of rhizosphere mud were lower than non-rhizosphere while, the organic matter and moisture content were higher in the rhizosphere mud of all the plants. Highest number of fungi were isolated from rhizosphere zone. Ascomycetes were frequent in rhizoplane and Zygomycetes in rhizosphere; while, Basidiomycetes were conspicuous by their absence.
