Abstract
Using ISTA techniques , 27 species of fungi
were isolated  from 6 varieties of sorghum seed. Deep freezing method was found superior to the standard  blotter and agar plate methods for the  detection of fusarium  spp., drechslera spicifera  and curvularia lunata. Seed components showed infection of alternaria alternata , curvularia  lunata , drechslera spicifera , D. hawaiiensis , fusarium moniliforme  and F. semitectum but F. moniliforme was frequently recorded in the embryo.
