mission microbial culture II

stage 2

culture of soil fungi

we used the same culture media- PDA to culture fungi found in soil. i collected a soil sample from near my house and streaked it in a petri dish containing the media. we got two species. i have guessed the first one to be Cladosporium sphaerospermum. the other species has not yet been recognized. i will post its identification as soon as i get it. it was real fun doing this and a great great learning experience.

mission microbial culture

stage 1

saprolegnia

these are slide photographs of  saprolegnia fungus that i cultured using streak plate method on PDA(potato dextrose agar) medium in the lab and under the supervision of my teacher Dr. Abhijit Dutta. these fungi were collected from some fish in Sen sir's lab and cultured to get the following results. it was fun doing the culture and also a great learning experience. we will culture fungi from soil in the next stage. when we completed the culture and saw the slides under the microscope, and all went fine, Dutta sir said, "mission successful."
