Sumario:Isolates of Verticillium fungicola collected in 2002 in the Veracruz State, Mexico,and previously identified as V. fungicola var. fungicola, were compared to French isolates forgenetic polymorphism and diversity in some physiological traits. Results were analysed basedon studies of a larger group of European V. fungicola var. fungicola. RAPD analyses showedthat Mexican isolates were genetically similar to those collected in Western Europe over theperiod 1987-2000. Mycelial growth rate, antibiosis effect against their host Agaricus bisporus,and in vitro sensitivity to the fungicide chlorothalonil did not distinguish the Mexican isolatesfrom the European isolates studied
