The variability of fungal flora in the air during morning and evening in 1994

Abstract

In this study the variability of fungal flora in the atmosphere during morning and evening hours in different districts of istanbul is investigated. The results are that in all districts in the evening the density is high of moulds, Penicillium and Aspergillus while in the morning hours, Cladosporium and Alternaria densities are high. The density of Leptosphaeria in the atmosphere decreases at night or equalizes compared to the morning rate. The rate of Ustilago differs in the morning and evening hours in different districts. There is no differentiation in the build-up rate of other fungus genera.
