Abstract

The aimed of study was identifying the fungi associated two types of fish, carp (Cyprinus carpio) and the shank (Tilapia sp.) from freshwater fish in Karbala / Iraq. The isolates from all body regions of the fish revealed three types of fungi, Lichtheimia corymbifera with a percentage of The frequency was 20% and Aspergillus terreus and Aspergillus niger had a frequency of 50 and 40% respectively .The morphologically isolated fungi were diagnosed using the approved taxonomic keys, the diagnosis was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique.
