Abstract: Based on the method of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification using the specific primers of defoliation and nondefoliation pathotypes of Verticillium dahliae, the pathotype of the isolates causing the verticillium wilt disease of eggplant in Shaoxing City of Zhejiang Province were identified. And the biological characteristics of V. dahliae were also studied. Results of PCR amplification showed that the isolates (VD-sy1, VD-sy2, VD-sy3, VD-sy4 and VD-sy5) obtained all belonged to the defoliating pathotype. The results of biological characteristics showed that VD-sy1 was able to grow at pH between 4.0 to 9.0, and 25 ℃ under 24 h dark condition was beneficial to colony growth; sucrose and yeast extract were the best carbon and nitrogen source for mycelia with linear growth rates of 4.25 and 4.06 mm·d-1, respectively, while galactose and ammonium chloride showed the least liner growth rates of 2.24 and 2.42 mm·d-1, respectively.
