Sažetak
Mycorrhizal and dark septate endophyte in Chlorophytum borivillianum cultivated in different parts of south- west India was found. Dark septate fungi with melanized hyphae and microsclerotia were documented. During culturing of the microsclerotia-containing roots, fungi with `Rhizoctonia-like’ characters developed. The fungi showed reluctance in sporulation but produced microsclerotia in the medium. Specific taxa and their ecological role can be attributed only after detailed studies as different strains of single taxa may vary greatly in their physiology.
