SUMMARY Five fungicides were compared for control of Verticilliumfungicola on six strains of the cultivated mushroom. The strains showed considerable differences both in their sensitivity to the fungicides and their susceptibility to infection. These factors complicated comparison of the fungicides, but benodanil was less effective than chlorothalonil against V. fungicola.
