Seeds harbor a considerable load of several fungal inoculums, responsible for various seed–borne diseases and damage. Cereals and pulses constitute the regular basic food of the masses that supply both carbohydrates and protein in their regular diet. Seeds of two pulses Cicer arietinum L. (Chickpea) & Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp (Pigeon pea) were collected from the farmers of Satara (Maharashtra), India and studied for the associated fungal flora using standard Blotter method, Agar plate (Czapek Dox medium) and Seed Washing Methods. On the unsterilized seeds of Cicer arietinum L. (Chickpea) twenty three species of fungi belonging to ten genera and on the seeds of Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp (Pigeon pea) twenty species belonging to two genera were observed. The most commonly isolated genera were Aspergillus, Alternaria, Fusarium and Penicillium while other prominent fungi detected on the pulse crops were Cladosporium, Curvularia, Verticillium and Drechslera.
