ABSTRACT: Lycium barbarum L. is an important economic crop in Qinghai province, China. However, root rot seriously reduces the economic results of L. barbarum. Here, we collected the diseased L. barbarum roots from Nuomuhong Farm of Haixi Mongolian and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province, China, to clarify the diversity, pathogenicity, and biological characteristics of its root rot pathogens. A total of 125 isolates were collected, and based on morphological characteristics and rDNA ITS, TEF-1α, and RPB2 genes sequence analysis, they were identified as Fusarium equiseti, F. avenaceum, F. solani, F. citri, F. acuminatum, F. culmorum, F. sambucinum, F. incarnatum, F. oxysporum, F. tr
