Fusarium solani

Colonies growing rapidly, 4.5 cm in 4 days, aerial mycelium white to cream, becoming bluish-brown when sporodochia are present. Macroconidia are formed after 4-7 days from short multi-branched conidiophores which may form sporodochia. They are 3- to 5- septate (usually 3- septate), fusiform, cylindrical, often moderately curved, with an indistinctly pedicellate foot cell and a short blunt apical cell, 28-42 x 4-6 µm. Microconidia are usually abundant, cylindrical to oval, one- to two-celled and formed from long lateral phialides, 8-16 x 2-4.5 µm. Chlamydospores are hyaline, globose, smooth to rough-walled, borne singly or in pairs on short lateral hyphal branches or intercalary, 6-10 µm. RG-2 organism.

MIC data is limited.  Antifungal susceptibility testing of individual strains is recommended.
