tolerant soil fungi like Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger, Rhizopus arrhizus and
Fusarium oxysporum has reported by many authors (Kurniati et al. 2014; Akinpelu
2014). The entophytic fungi Lasiodiplodia theobromae was isolated from Boswellia
ovalifoliolata has been reported remarkable detoxification on selected heavy metals
(Aishwarya et al. 2016). Mercury tolerant indigenous fungus mobilizing the mercury
pollution were isolated from agricultural soil (Hindersah et al. 2018).
The source of mercury in soil comes from modern agriculture practices and
industrial effluents. The filamentous fungi Trichoderma harzianum and Aspergillus
niger solubilized the stable mercury and lead (Shoaib et al. 2012; Sarkar et al. 2010).
