Fungal-plant interaction for crops improvement under changing environment for food security

Abstract

Background: Fungi are uncommon causes of sinusitis. Many fungi have been associated with fungal sinusitis, including the Aspergillus species, zygomycetes species, several of the dematiaceous fungi including Curvularia, Bipolaris and Exserohilum. The etiological agents of fungal sinusitis reported from India vary from those of the western countries, wherein dematiaceous fungi are more common. Aspergillus spp., are more commonly isolated from the Indian subcontinent.
