The occurrence of heat-resistant fungi has been demonstrated in samples of soil from the Slovak Republic. The heat-resistant species isolated were Byssochlamys nivea, Dichotomomyces cejpii, Eupenicillium baarnense, Neosartorya fischeri, Talaromyces avellaneus, Tal. bacillisporus, Tal. emersonii, Tal. flavus, Tal. trachyspermus, Tal. wortmanii, Botryotrichum piluliferum, Gilmaniella humicola and Nodulisporium sp. Some of them were isolated for the first time from Czechoslovakian soil. For the various soil samples examined, the occurrence of heat-resistant fungi varied qualitatively and quantitatively. Further research is needed to identify conditions affecting the occurrence of heat-resistant fungi in soil.
