Wplyw srodowiska tuczarni trzody chlewnej na stan mikologiczny jej gleby

The aim of this paper was to investigate the effect of a swine farm environment on the mycological state of its soil (chernozem). Using the plate dilution method, the frequency and species composition of mould fungi in soil (i.e. chernozem) were established, the samples being taken on the grounds of a commercial swine farm. It was evidenced that the number of fungi was diverse and depended on both the object (organic manure site, dunghill, fattening house) and soil layer thickness. Among the 21 isolated genera, Mortierella and Fusarium were the most common. Trichoderma, Penicillium and Aspergillus were isolated less regularly. The potentially toxigenic fungi, in particular Fusarium equiseti, F. sporotrichioides, F. graminearum, F. sambucinum, F. culmorum, and rarely Penicillium spp., accumulated especially in the soils which were affected by the organic manure site and fattening house.
