Abstract:   (24 Views)
To identify the endophytic fungi of the caper plant, samples were collected from the healthy leaves, stems, and roots from Bushehr and Qom provinces during the summer and early autumn of 2022. Isolation and purification of fungal isolates were performed on potato dextrose agar and 2% water agar culture media, respectively. A total of 102 fungal isolates were obtained. Morphological characteristics and molecular data of the ITS region and TUB gene were used to identify the fungal species. Based on the results, Microascus cirrosus and M. terreus were identified as new endophytic fungi of caper for the first time in the world, and M. terreus was introduced as a new record for the funga of Iran.
