Abstract
Drumstick tree or horse radish tree (Moringa oleífera Lam.) is a highly valued plant, widely cultivated in the tropics and subtropics with many uses as human and animal food, with medicinal and antimicrobial properties and its oil is considered a source of biofuels. For these reasons, Cuba has imported seed lots from different origins to spread this crop in the country. The objective of the present study was to determine mycobiota associated to drumstick imported seeds lots by blotter test methods and classic taxonomy for the identification of fungal species. 400 seeds from each 73 lot from 12 countries were analized by blotter test. A great fungal biodiversity with a total of 708 isolates belonging to 47species of 26 genera was detected. Fusarium, Aspergillus and Chaetomium, with 8, 6 and 4 species identified, were the predominant genera constituting 44.35 % of all isolates. More frequent detected species were Phoma sp. (69.4 %), Rhizopus stolonifer (63.9 %), Aspergillus fumigatus (58.3 %), Fusarium solani (55.6 %), Aspergillus niger (55.6 %), Fusarium semitectum (52.8 %), Phomopsis sp. (50 %) y Chaetomium globosum (48.6 %). From detected species only Bipolaris hawaiiensis, Cladosporium herbarum, Fusarium semitectum, Lasiodiplodia theobromae and Rhizopus stolonifer have been described as drumstick pathogens.
