This is a glossary of over 1000 terms used in Plant Pathology - the
study of Plant Diseases. It covers terms in use in the current
editions of the different internationally mandated and proposed
books. Any abbreviations, latinizations and synonyms are
incorporated, as are terms which are either no longer employed, are
used outside the formal nomenclatural Codes, or are otherwise
likely to be encountered. As some of the terms used in the
classification of plant communities are identical to those of whole
organisms, terms used in phytosociological nomenclature are also
included. It is intended for use as a reference work by all
biologists, especially those involved with the description or re-
classification of organisms, as well as those investigating the
status and application of previously proposed names.
The efficacy of different Pleurotus ostreatus (L.) isolates to
treat pulp and paper industrial effluent on a shake flask and
fermentor were studied. In the shake flask and fermentor studies,
Pleurotus ostreatus decolorized the effluent 69.68% and 66.66%
respectively, on 7TH day of incubation. The chemical oxygen demand
was reduced by 61.3% by Pleurotus ostreatus on day 7 of incubation.
Various cultural conditions including different glucose
concentrations, nitrogen sources, pH, temperature and incubation
period influence on biomass and different enzymes viz; xylanase,
CMCase and laccase production by Pleurotus ostreatus IMPP-02 were
optimized in shake flask cultures. Under these culture conditions,
the maximum level of xylanase activity (9.29 Uml-1), CMCase (7.37 U
ml-1), laccase (13.57 U ml-1) and effluent decolorization (69.68%)
were observed on 7th day during shake flask studies. Furthermore,
the optimum pH and temperature were found to be 5.0 and 30 C,
respectively in fermentor studies. The maximum color reduction of
66.66 %; biological oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand
(COD) reduction of 65.35 % and 61.3 % respectively, were determined
during fermentor studies.

Fungi are organisms which are taxonomically, environmentally and
medically important organisms. They hold a prominent position among
all the decomposing organisms. They exist in the Unicellular form
as Aspergillus fumigatus, Alternaria alternaria, Venturia inequalis
e.t.c. and also in the multicellular for such as Ganoderma lucidum,
Agaricus biporus, Amanita muscaria e.t.c. They are equally harmful
for the growing crops, livestocks and human beings. It is need of
the hour to identify their environmental niche. It is also
important to deal with their laboratory handlings. This manuscript
is an attempt to give the laboratory techniques for the handling of
Basidiomycetec which is most advanced form of the fungi.
