Fusarium equiseti is a fungal species and plant pathogen on a varied range of crops.

It is considered to be a weak pathogen on cereals and is occasionally found to be associated with 'Fusarium head blight' infected kernels. [3] It is commonly found in tropical and sub-tropical areas. [4]

The species has been reported to be a causal organism of wilt in Capsicum chinense in Mexico in 2016. [5]

Fusarium equiseti is also one of the causal organisms for causing chilli wilt in Kashmir along with other fungi species; Fusarium oxysporum and Fusarium solani . [6]
