role of opportunistic fungi in ocular infections in nigeria. | the importance of opportunistic fungal pathogens in causing ocular infections is emphasized. a study was conducted over a period of 4 years (1974--1977) to investigate the role of opportunistic fungi in causing mycotic keratitis and to elucidate certain aspects of epidemiology of this disease in nigeria. fifty-nine cases of corneal ulcers of suspected mycotic etiology were investigated. fungal etiology was confirmed in 42 of these cases. the predominant etiological agent was fusarium solani in 1 ... | 1978 | 745623 |
mycoflora and nutritional value of shelled melon seeds (citrulus vulgaris schrad.) in nigeria. | thirteen fungi were isolated from mouldy shelled melon seeds. the fungi more frequently isolated included species of mucor (11.25%), rhizopus (13.75%), aspergillus (36.25%), macrophoma (2.50%), penicillium (8.75%), alternaria (5.00%), fusarium (8.75%), botrytis (6.25%), torula (3.75%) and geotrichum (3.75%). healthy, shelled melon seeds inoculated with fusarium solani for 7 or 14 days caused increases in the free fatty acid (f.f.a.) content of the healthy seeds from an initial value of 1.06% to ... | 1990 | 2170965 |
