Pathogenic fungi attack plants at any phase of development from the seedling stage to seed maturing stage. The microflora found on seeds can be both pathogenic and saprotrophic. Some saprotrophs, including micromycetes storage period, such as Penicillium spp., under certain conditions are able pass parasitism, causing mold seed. On other hand, spp. is known play an important role in soil fertilization stimulation plant growth. Identification during eggplant ontogenesis «from seed» was done. Several genotypes local selection were used study. Molecular analysis using nested-PCR a set primers designed for species-specific regions genome: P. chrisogenum, expansum, citrinum, verrucosum, griseofulvum, brevicompactum performed. identification pathogens genus seeding material, leaves collected different stages isolated biological maturity fruits carried out.
