English Abstract

The study aims to evaluate different methods for detection of seed-borne fungi on local wheat cultivars grown in Duhok province,Kurdistan region, Iraq.

Agar plate method, blotter method, deep freezing method, seed washing test and embryo count method were used to assess the associated fungi.

The first four techniques were found efficient for isolation of Alternaria alternata,Arthrinium phaeospermum, Aspergillus flavus ,A.niger,Cladosporium herbarum,Ulocladium atrum and U.alternariae.

Agar plate method was efficient for detection of ascomycetes viz.Chaetomium elatum,C.globosum, Coniocessia annadra,Corynascella sp.,Emericella rugulosa and Eurotium herbariorum.

Tilletia spp., were detected only by seed washing technique.
