Due to the diversity of climate and physical and geographical position, the Republic of Azerbaijan has unique biocenoses in its ecosystems, both pure and exposed to anthropogenic impact, including pollution. This uniqueness is also reflected in the fungal biodiversity that is found in oil-polluted soils. Although the biodiversity of micromycetes in oil-contaminated soils of the Absheron Peninsula, the region where oil was extracted on land for the first time in the world, has been studied by researchers in different years, these studies do not allow us to provide a statistical assessment of this biotope. Based on the latest research, we have identified 38 species of micromycetes belonging to 16 genera. In addition, an assessment of the phytotoxic activity of all species isolated in pure culture was carried out. Weak phytotoxic activity was demonstrated by such fungi as A. pullulans, T. herbarum and P. circinan, and strong phytotoxic activity was demonstrated by F. oxysporum, F. verticillioides and P. chrysogenum. These data also contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between plants and fungi.
Keywords:Absheron Peninsula, oil-contaminated soils, fungi, phytotoxicity
