The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of three salts of copper viz., copper sulfate (CUSO4), copper chloride (CuCl2) and copper oxychloride [CuCl2.3Cu(OH)2] on in vitro growth of three soil fungi viz.. Aspergillus oryzae, A. niger and Drechslera tetramera. The data recorded at the end of incubation period revealed a remarkable decrease in fresh and dry biomass of these fungi by the action of all salts of Copper. Aspergillus oryzae showed maximum suppression in growth in response to these treatments especially to Copper sulfate while Aspergillus niger proved highly resistant.
