During the last few years, the appearance of rot of garlic bulbs and cloves in warehouses has been continuously monitored, and six species of Fusarium genus were found: F. verticillioides, F. solani, F. proliferatum, F. tricinctum, F. oxysporum f. sp. cepae and F. acuminatum. Maximum growth rate after three days was recorded at 25°C in all investigated isolates. At 10°C maximum growth rate was recorded for the F. tricinctum with 13mm in diameter and the lowest growth rate at 30°C with ø11mm. Our experimental results show how different temperature greatly influenced mycelial growth and it can increase rot progression and severity during the storage period.
