    Molds are the chief pathogens of stored corms and as such cause huge post-harvest and economic losses to cocoyam farmers in Nigeria. This research was aimed at isolating and identifying molds associated with post-harvest loss of Xanthosoma sagittifolium. The spoilage molds identified were Aspergillus tamari, Aspergillus niger, Fusarium oxysporium, Fusarium solani and Mucor circinelloides. These isolates were subjected to pathogenicity tests using fresh healthy tubers in order to confirm their ability to elicit same spoilage symptoms in healthy corms. 30 test corms were used and were divided into groups A, B, C, D, E and F. Weights, rot types and percentage rot severity were monitored during the research. Dry rot had the highest value of 75%, soft rot had 25%; these brought to the summary of the fact that these molds are associated with the spoilage of Xanthosoma sagittifolium during storage.
