Sources and mycoflora associated with some sundried vegetables in storage.

The sources and mycoflora of sundried, preserved: Abelmoschus esculentus, Corchorus olitorius, Solanum macrocarpon and Capsicum annum collected from 3 markets in Nigeria were investigated over a period of 8 weeks. The predominant fungi isolated from stored vegetables were Aspergillus flavus, A. niger, A. fumigatus, Rhizopus oryzae, Penicillium oxalicum, Rhizomucor pusillus and Fusarium equiseti. The mycoflora of fresh vegetables differed from that following sundrying. Some microorganisms were isolated immediately after sundrying and throughout storage. There was also evidence that some of these species were acquired in the field and carried into storage. Post-harvest contaminants, handling, air spora during sundrying and storage fungi were other sources of contamination of these vegetables.
