Nine strains of fungi which showed different colonies were isolated from Cheongdo-Banshi (flat persimmon) stored in a refrigerator. Based on morphological and molecular characteristics, they were identified as Botrytis cinerea (n=4), Penicillium expansum (n=2), and Rhizopus delemar (n=1). Of these, B. cinerea and P. expansum occurred frequently but R. delemar occurred rarely. This report of P. expansum and R. delemar on persimmon is the first time in Korea.
