Abstract
Wilt is a serious disease of guava crop in India. Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. psidii and F. solani have been reported as the main causative agents of this disease. Most recently a survey on guava plants affected with wilt disease was conducted in severely affected areas of India, and two new species of Fusarium viz. Fusarium proliferatum and Fusarium chlamydosporum were found to be associated with this disease. However, pathogenecity of Fusarium chlamydosporum was successfully conducted in the field trials. The culture of F. chlamydosporum was processed for DNA sequencing and DNA sequence was submitted to NCBI with GenBank accession no. HM102506. The submitted DNA sequence of F. chlamydosporum was compared for the genetic position in Fusarium spp. evolutionary phylogenic tree.
