Abstract
The rhizosphere microbial community is known to be very diverse and of great importance for soil fertility. Aspergillus sp. is one of the fungi plays a role in nutrient cycling, soil formation, plant growth, and plant disease control. This study aims to explore and to identify the diversity of Aspergillus sp from rice rhizosphere in convetional cropping systems. Soil samples was taken from Sugiale Village. This research was conducted in Suliange Village, Barebbo Distric, Bone Regency. and Plant Disease Laboratory, Department of Pests and Plant Diseases, Faculty of Agriculture, Hasanuddin University,Makasssar.In this research describe the characteristic morfologies of fungi from Mekongga rice field. The fungal isolates were successfully isolated and purified. Morphology identification indicated that these isolates are belongs to the fungal group Aspergillus
