Aerosols consists of fungal spores, pollen grains, bacteria, viruses, insects, protozoa, hyphal fragments and many other unidentified particles were found in this market area. In vegetable and fruits market environment aeromycoflora contains mostly fungal spores which causes the diseases to fruit and vegetable and also the various allergies to human beings. These airspora responsible for the degradation and weakening of the natural materials, an aerobiological survey of vegetable and fruits market environment at Ashti areas. In this investigation we have used the apparatus Tilak Air Sampler [Tilak and Kulkarni1970] and culture plate exposure method. some of them are toxic and causing serious health hazards in human beings as well as due to their higher concentration in the environment they create pollution. Among them fungal spores taken into consideration to find out of the status of various types of allergic and pathogenic spores causing health hazards to plants and human beings. The high concentration of Aspergillus flavu,s [12.25%], followed by Alternaria[7.25%],sporidesmium[6.85%], penic cilium[5.99%], curvularia[5.78] and hyphal fragment[ 4.74%] found in market areas. The present aerobiological investigation was carried out by using petri plates for the period of one-year i.e. from 1"January to 31 December 2019.� In this investigation period 31 types of fungal spores and other spores were recorded during the study. These aeromycoflora were comparatively less and it changes Day to Day and months to months due to variation in meteorological Parameters. It was discovered that high humidity, direct temperature, wind velocity these are responsible for development of diseases. It is concluded that there is a definite relationship between the fungal spores and t hemarket. Therefore, the perfect management of the waste materials is needed in the market.
