This
research is on the viable air fungi was sampling during 12 months in the different
points of Yunusemre. Fungal propagules were collected each month from eight isolation
points. The concentrations of fungi were reported as cfu / m³ of
air. Fungal identification was made according to their micro and macro morphological
characters through the literature. As a result, the average concentration of
culturable fungi is 412 cfu / m³ in Yunusemre air. 36 species in 9
genus were identified in this research. Penicillium
is the most plenty genus that more than 33% of the all isolated fungi. Cladosporium was the preponderant fungal
genus.
