Abstract
Ten indigenous microfungal species were characterized and identified belonging to four genera such as Actinomucor sp., Acrophialophora sp., Aspergillus candidus, A. flavus, A. fumigatus, A. niger, A. oryzae, A. terreus, and Penicillium oxalicum and Penicillium sp. Seven microfungal species were successfully sequenced, and phylogenetic analysis revealed monophyly in Aspergillus spp. while Acrophialophora sp. is distantly related to the other microfungal species. After establishing their biological information, their biofunctional potential can be explored
