Isolation and Identification of Endophytic Fungi from Eucalyptus Plants and their Use the Plant in the Treatment of some Types of Pathogenic Bacteria and Endophytic Fungi

Abstract

Background and Objective: Although plants and their roots contain organisms and substances that inhibit the growth of both plants and surrounding organisms, endophytic fungi and bacteria are of particular benefit and influence the absorption of substances from the soil so that the plant is more effective in resisting many diseases. Methods:  In this study, samples were collected from the roots of the Eucalyptus plant from different locations at Al-Qadisiyah University (from 9/5/2023 to 11/29/20232) Results: the fungi and internal bacteria were isolated from them. After that, the leaves were taken and their inhibitory effect on some... Types of bacteria and fungi isolated from the roots, as well as on some types of pathogenic bacteria, and it was noted that they have a clear inhibitory effect on these organisms. Conclusion: Based on this study and previous studies, it was found that they have a role in absorbing nutrients from the soil that are necessary for the plant to be substances with an inhibitory effect on many of living organisms, as well as of the same organisms parasitic on its roots.
