Abstract: The present investigation was designed for studying the endophytic fungi of Altheae rosea in Qena, potentialities of plant extracts (hydrophilic and hydrophobic) against dermatophytic fungi and pathogenic bacteria. The results obtained during this investigation could be summarized as follows:
Forty four species belonging to 27 genera were isolated and identified from young and old leaves and roots of Altheae rosea, in addition to 3 types of sterile mycelium and unidentified fungi on glucose-Czapek’s agar at 28±2˚ C. It can be seen from these results obtained, the number of isolates from old leaves and roots were more than the number of isolates from young leaves and roots also the number of isolates from midrib was more than from other parts.
