Isolation and identification of seed borne fungi of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) from selected markets in Makurdi was conducted. A total of four fungi namely Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus flavus, Fusarium oxysporum and Botryodiplodia theobromae were isolated from the bean samples. Percentage germination /viability of the samples ranged from 33-53%. There was no significant difference at P=0.05 in the viability of seeds from North bank and Wadata markets while seeds from Wurukum and High level markets showed significant difference (P < 0.05) in viability. Percentage of seeds infected with fungi ranged from 33-67% in all sample locations. There was no significant difference (P > 0.05) in the percentage number of seeds infected with fungi. The percentage of fungi isolated from samples ranged from 50-100% in all sampled sites. Analysis of Variance revealed no significant difference (P > 0.05) in the percentage of fungi on the bean samples. Frequency of occurrence of each fungi isolated ranged from 8.35-47.7%. There was no significant difference (P > 0.05) in the frequency of occurrence of fungi isolated from the samples. Isolation of fungal pathogens from the bean seeds indicate that they should be treated before sowing to obtain good germination and healthy crop.
