Fusarium
Fusarium (; ) is a large genus of filamentous fungi, part of a group often referred to as hyphomycetes, widely distributed in soil and associated with plants. The name of Fusarium comes from Latin fusus, meaning a spindle. Most species in Genus Fusarium are harmless saprobes found in relative abundance in the soil microbial community, and some exist as commensal members of the skin microbiome.

Nectria
Nectria is a genus of Ascomycete fungi. They are most often encountered as saprophytes on decaying wood but some species can also occur as parasites of trees, especially fruit trees (for example apple) and a number of other hardwood trees. Some species are significant pests causing diseases such as apple canker, Nectria twig blight, and coral spot in orchards.

Gibberella
Gibberella is a genus of fungi in the family Nectriaceae.
Neonectria
Neonectria is a genus of fungi in the family Nectriaceae.
Calonectria
Calonectria (anamorph Cylindrocladium) is a genus of ascomycete fungi. Calonectria species are plant pathogens.
Cylindrocarpon
Cylindrocarpon is a genus of fungi. Many of the species in this genus are plant pathogens.
Cosmospora
Cosmospora is a genus of ascomycete fungi in the family Nectriaceae. The genus, as circumscribed by Rossman et al. (1998), included all the nectrioid species with small, reddish, non-ornamented sexual fruiting bodies that collapse laterally when dry. However, the genus was shown to be polyphyletic, and the majority of species were re-classified into revived or recently established genera that are monophyletic. Cosmospora sensu Rossman housed members of the following genera: Chaetopsina, Cylindrocladiella, Fusicolla, Macroconia, Mariannaea, Microcera, Pseudocosmospora, Stylonectria, and Volutel
Xenonectriella
Xenonectriella is a genus of lichenicolous fungi in the family Nectriaceae. The genus was circumscribed by lichenologist Josef Karl Weese in 1919, with Xenonectriella lutescens assigned as the type species.
Allonectella
Allonectella is a genus of ascomycete fungi in the family Nectriaceae.
Tubercularia
Tubercularia is a genus of fungi in the family Nectriaceae. With the change to single name nomenclature in fungi, Tubercularia is now considered a synonym of Nectria.
Cylindrocladiella
Cylindrocladiella is a genus of ascomycete fungi in the family Nectriaceae. There are 11 species.
Zythiostroma
Zythiostroma is a genus of canker fungus in the family Nectriaceae. The two or three species in the genus, which are anamorphs of the genus Nectria, have been found in Europe and Java.
Albonectria
Albonectria is a genus of ascomycete fungi in the family Nectriaceae.
Fusicolla
Fusicolla is a genus of seven species of ascomycete fungi in the family Nectriaceae. The genus was circumscribed by German mycologist Hermann Friedrich Bonorden in 1851. Fungi in the genus produce slimy orange sheets over the substrate, within which the perithecia can be either fully or partially immersed. Asexual spores are similar to those of Fusarium.
Campylocarpon
Campylocarpon is a genus of ascomycete fungi in the family Nectriaceae. The genus was described in 2004. The two species in the genus, C. fasciculare and C. pseudofasciculare, are associated with black foot disease of grapevines, in which the roots develop black, sunken, necrotic lesions.
Corallomycetella
Corallomycetella is a genus of ascomycete fungi in the family Nectriaceae. Species of Corallomycetella are tropical, and are characterized by the formation of brightly colored rhizomorphs of their rhizostilbella-like asexual morphs. These fungi causes a number of plant diseases including 'violet root rot' of Theobroma cacao, root rot of Carica papaya, and 'stinking root disease' of several tropical woody plants. Two species of Corallomycetella are recognized: Corallomycetella elegans (Berk. and M.A. Curtis) C. Herrera & P. Chaverri and Corallomycetella repens (Berk. & Broome) Rossman & Samuels
Cylindrocladium
Cylindrocladium is a genus of ascomycete fungi in the family Nectriaceae. Many species within this genus are synonymous with the genus Calonectria.
Calostilbe
Calostilbe is a genus of ascomycete fungi in the family Nectriaceae.
Mariannaea
Mariannaea is a genus of fungi belonging to the family Nectriaceae.
Haematonectria
Haematonectria is a genus of fungi in the family Nectriaceae.
Pseudonectria
Pseudonectria is a genus of fungi in the family Nectriaceae.
Neocosmospora
Neocosmospora is a genus of fungi in the family Nectriaceae.
