1990
Buruchara, R.A.
Twenty six samples of bean seeds obtained from Kisii, Kakamega, Embu and Kiambu Districts in Kenya were tested for seed-borne fungi using the Standard Blotter Method. Eighteen species of fungi were recorded: Fusarium moniliforme, F. semitectum, F. equisite, F. solani, F. oxysporum, Colletotrichum lindemuthianum, C. dematium, Macrophomina phaseoli, Rhizoctonia solani, Botryodiplodia theobromae and Phoma, Cephalosporium, Verticillium, Cercospora, Rhizopus, Penicillium, Aspergillus and Cladosporium spp. Levels of seed infestation ranged from trace amounts to moderate (0.25-12 percent). However, 21 of the samples were infected with F. semitectum; 18 with F. oxysporum; 14 with F. moniliforme and 12 with Phoma spp. C. lindemuthianum, C. dematium, M. phaseoli, R. solani and Verticillium and Cercospora spp. were each recorded only once out of 26 samples
