From twigs, leaves and buds collected in Fagarè wood (north-eastern Italy) from declining Quercus robur, 14 fungal strains were isolated. Among them, Geniculosporium corticioides, anamorph of Hypoxylon serpens, was isolated with a total frequncy of 26%. This fungus was artificially inoculated in healty 1 year old seedlings of Q. robur. The plants were grown in greenhouse and half of them were submitted to drought stress. All inoculated plant died at 28 dpi. G. corticioides was reisolated from necrotic tissues 1 cm above the inoculation point , revealing its high pathogenicity, known outside Italy for the teleomorphic phase
