Abstract
Thirty fungi were isolated from soils collected from wheat fields of rice-rice-wheat, green
manure crop (Sesbania grandiflora L.)
- fallow - wheat and fallow - fallow – wheat cropping pattern from Gazipur
(Joydebpur) and Jamalpur district of Bangladesh. In both locations, fourteen
fungi were in common. The pathogenic fungi, Bipolaris
sp., Curvularia sp., Fusarium spp., Rhizoctonia sp. and Sclerotium sp. were obtained from both
locations. The fungus Gaeumannomyces sp. was only pathogenic to wheat in
Joydebpur while Phoma sp. was weakly pathogenic to wheat
