MOLECULAR STUDY TO SOME FUNGI ISOLATED FROM PHONE COVER AND IT'S USERS

60 samples were randomly isolated 30 samples from the cover of a mobile phone and 30 samples from the finger of its users for people from the city of Mosul - Iraq, most of them are pioneers of life sciences, College of Science, University of Mosul, with a ratio of 15 females and 15 males of different ages, occupation, region, type of device, number of hours of use, and the last date taken. Washing the hands and the user's hand, right or left. The results showed that the cover of the mobile device of a female student in the Department of Life Sciences, College of Science, University of Mosul, at the age of 27 years, was contaminated with the fungus Chaetomium globosum, which grew on PDA medium.it was also noticed that the finger of the mobile device was contaminated by a female student in the Department of life Sciences College of sciences, University of Mosul,28 years old with The yeast Meyerozyma caribbica, and these two samples were recorded in the Gen Bank of the National Center for Biotechnology Information NCBI, the fungus was recorded as Chaetomium globosum B-M1 and given an identification number LC723824.1, while the yeast Meyerozyma caribbica was recorded as Meyerozyma caribbica B-M2 and with definition number is LC723825, .By studying the genetic distance and affinity tree of the fungus Chaetomium globosum B-M1 it was observed that it was identical (2.283), while the affinity ratio with the Chinese one was (2.582) and it was genetically far from the Iranian isolate by (2.852). As for the American isolate, there was genetic divergence with the Iraqi local isolate by (3326.), while it was found from the tree of distance and genetic affinity for the yeast Meyerozyma caribbica B-M2 that it was identical by ( 0.001) with its Japanese counterpart and was genetically far from the Australian isolate by (2.086) . As for the Italian and Dutch isolates there was a genetic divergence with the Iraqi local isolate by (2.304).
