Two methods of isolation were used: the grain-and the dilution plate. The spectrum of fungal genera and species collected by the former (35 genera, 96 species + 1 variety) was broader than by the latter method (28 genera, 76 species + 1 variety). Nine genera were of high occurrence (represented in more than 50 per cent of the samples) namely, Aspergillus, Penicillium, Fusarium, Alternaria, Chaetomium, Cladosporium, Humicola, Drechslera and Myrothecium.
