أجري هذا البحث لتشخيص الفطريات التي تصيب نبات عشب النيل Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes [Mart.] Solms), هو دغل مائي يتواجد في نهر دجله بإتجاه جنوب بغداد.

اختيرت لهذه الدراسة خمسة مواقع من وسط و جنوب العراق (النعمانية، سعيد بن جبير، الحي، الرفاعي، العزيزية).

تم عزل (12) فطر، و كانت الفطريات Alternaria alernata, Acremonium and Cladsporium flvum, هي الأكثر تكرارا (91.66 % و 50 % و 25 %) على التوالي.

أظهرت الفطرياتAcremonium sp, Phoma eupyrena, Alternaria alternate، أمراضية اشد في نبات عشب النيل و بالنسب (91.66 %، 83.33 %، 75 %) على التوالي.
