Abstract Background The soil borne fungus Rhizoctonia is one of the most important plant pathogenic fungi with a wide host range and worldwide distribution. In cauliflower Brassica oleracea var. botrytis several anastomosis groups AGs including both multinucleate R. solani and binucleate Rhizoctonia species have been identified showing different levels of aggressiveness. The infection and colonization process of Rhizoctonia during pathogenic interactions is well described. In contrast insights into processes during interactions with weak aggressive or non-pathogenic isolates are limited. In this study the interaction of cauliflower with seven R. solani AGs and one binucleate Rhizoctonia AG differing in aggressiveness was compared. Using microscopic and histopathological techniques the early steps of the infection process the colonization process and several host responses were studied. Results For aggressive Rhizoctonia AGs R. solani AG 1-1B AG 1-1C AG 2-1 AG 2-2 Illb and AG 4 HGII a higher developmental rate was detected .
