Abstract
Lyophyllum decastes is a delicious mushroom with healthcare value and has been successfully cultivated in many areas in China. In 2021 and 2022, root rot was found on the mushroom in a production base of Guiyang City, Guizhou Province. Based on morphological and molecular identifications, the pathogenic fungus was identified as Fusarium solani. The pathogenicity was verified with Koch’s postulates. This is the first report confirming the presence of this Fusarium causing root rot on L. decastes in China.
