There is no comprehensive survey of the presence of fungi associated with lima bean seeds. The objective of this study was to evaluate the fungal diversity of 34 samples of lima bean seeds, acquired with farmers and markets during the years 2014 and 2015 in the states of Ceará, Maranhão, Paraíba and Piauí. Subsamples of 400 seeds were sterilized by soaking in 1% NaOCl solution for 3 minutes, followed by two washes in sterile distilled water, and dried at room temperature. Seeds were placed in Petri plates containing Potato Dextrose Agar, and incubated at 25 C for seven days. Fungal identification was based on morphological markers, and its incidences were quantified. Isolates from the main phytopathogens were also identified by the amplification and sequencing of housekeeping genes. Samples presented variations in diversity and incidence, with the presence of 22 fungal genera. Aspergillus spp., Penicillium spp., Curvularia sp. and Monilinia sp. corresponded to 63.76% of the colonies observed. Among the phytopathogens, isolates of Macrophomina phaseolina, Colletotrichum truncatum, Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium udum and Fusarium oxysporum were identified by BLASTn analysis (99 to 100% DNA similarity) and phylogenetic analysis. C. truncatum and M. phaseolina presented the highest incidences (0.95% and 1.58%, respectively) among phytopathogens.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a diversidade fúngica de 34 amostras de sementes de feijão-fava, adquiridas com produtores rurais e em feiras livres, durante os anos de 2014 e 2015, nos estados do Ceará, Maranhão, Paraíba e Piauí. Subamostras de 400 sementes foram desinfestadas, e incubadas a 25 C durante sete dias em placas de Petri contendo meio de cultura Batata-Dextrose-Ágar. A identificação dos fungos foi realizada com base nos marcadores morfológicos, e suas incidências foram quantificadas. Isolados dos principais fitopatogógenos também foram identificados pela amplificação e sequenciamento de genes "housekeeping". As amostras apresentaram variações na diversidade e incidência, com a presença de 22 gêneros fúngicos. Aspergillus spp., Penicillium spp., Curvularia sp. e Monilinia sp. corresponderam a 63,76% das colônias observadas. Dentre os fitopatógenos, os isolados de Macrophomina phaseolina, Colletotrichum truncatum, Rhizoctonia solani,Brazilian Journal of Biosystems Engineering v. 11(1): 79-87, 2017 80 Fusarium udum e Fusarium oxysporum foram identificados por análise BLASTn (99 a 100% de similaridade de DNA) e análise filogenética. C. truncatum e M. phaseolina apresentaram as maiores incidências (0,95% e 1,58%, respectivamente) dentre os fitopatógenos.
