The fungi showed variation in their growth and development when grown on various nutrient media. This study examines the growth and developments of seven different fungi in define media. The fungi growth was obtained by daily measurement of fresh and dry weights with changes in pH. Two fungi Fusarium sp. and Antrodia sitchensis having slow growth rate in compare to rest of the five and preferred neutral to slightly alkaline condition for their growth. Rest of the five, Aspergillus niger, Curvularia intermedia and three of Macrophomina phaseolina isolates (a, b, c) were found to grow better in slightly acidic condition. Initial pH of the medium changed considerably during the growth of the fungi. The role of pH change in the growth and development of the fungi is discussed.
