Rapid and reliable detection of pathogenic organisms is a basic requirement for diagnosis of food-borne illness and diseases. The detection of fungal pathogens in clinical and plant samples by PCR requires an efficient method of DNA extraction. A variety of extraction protocol is available for isolation of DNA. No single extraction method seems to be optimal for all organisms (Bolano et al., 2001). Fungus may form mycellial growth (filamentous) or spores on the media depending upon the strain used. The fungus is freeze dried or lyophilized before isolation. Fungal nucleases and high polysaccharide content (mannan, β-glucans and chitin) in rigid cell wall (Chaffin et al., 1998) add to the difficulties in isolating DNA from filamentous fungi (Muller et al., 1998; Fredricks et al., 2005). Therefore, additional lysis steps, such as mechanical disruption or sonication, enzymatic digestion or use of toxic chemicals are required (Alaey et al., 2005). The CTAB extraction method was originally developed by Doyle and Doyle in 1987 for plant tissue extraction. It was considered superior for removing carbohydrates but it is timeconsuming and labor-intensive and does not result DNA yields satisfactorily from all biological samples including fungal mycelia and spores. A variety of modified CTAB methods are now available (Saghai-Maroof et al., 1984) for extraction and purification of fungal DNA using organic solvents (Blin and Stafford, 1976).
