Soil rich in keratinous material represents the main reservoir of keratinophilic fungi. Majority of soil saprophytes are known to cause fungal disease (mycoses) in human beings and animals. Considering the importance of soil saprophytes as potential human pathogens, this study aimed at assessing their presence in various soil samples collected from different locations of Jammu, India. Soil samples...
Soil samples from ten poultry farms of Jammu, Northern India, were screened for the presence of keratinophilic fungi by the keratin-bait technique. 20 species belonging to nine genera (Chrysosporium, Malbranchea, Scopulariopsis, Microascus, Gliocladium, Circinella, Fusarium, Aspergillus and Penicillium) were isolated. Some of them are known to be potential pathogens.
