Abstract:

In Israel, the effects of crop sequence and soil types on the mycoflora of groundnut kernels has been investigated over 3 years in 81 fields, of those some previously fallowed, others continuously cropped with or without groundnuts. The general mycoflora of kernels was richest in fields previously sown with groundnuts. In the cropped fields, whether groundnuts were included in the previous crops or not, Aspergillus niger made up 50-60 per cent of the total mycoflora. Penicillium funiculosum and P. rubrum were considerably more prevalent on previously fallowed fields. Prevalence of A. flavus was always low and not influenced by crop sequences. Total kernel mycofloras were constantly higher on medium and heavy than on other soils. © 1970 Martinus Nijhoff.
