Macrophomina phaseolina has been reported for the first time in three areas of strawberry production in east Tripoli (Al-Nasheh, Bir Al-Turki, Eslaisla). 90 percent of tested strawberry plants (cv.

Morphological and pathogenicity tests confirmed that Macrophomina phaseolina is the causal agent of strawberry crown and root rot.
