Received 28 December 2006/ Accepted 29 December 2006

Eleven antifungal drugs were tested against representative isolates of the four phylogenetic clades of the Fusarium solani species complex obtained in a multilocus sequence analysis. They all showed very poor activity, with no differences among the clades. Amphotericin B was the most active drug.
