Seeds of Haloxylon (H. pericae, H. aphyllum, and H. ammmodendron) were collected from Sabzevar and Gonabad regions. The seeds were kept in the refrigerator for isolation of the fungi after determining the germination rate and moisture content. The recommended methods by International Seed Testing Association (I.S.T.A.) for isolation of seedborne fungi were followed throughout this study. The fungi were isolated by agar plate method, standard blotter technique, Hiltner test and seed analysis. In this study 15 genera and 19 species of fungi were identified. Among them Alternaria, Aspergillus, Camarosporium, Fusarium, and Penicillium were dominant among fungal genera isolates.
