Aciculosporium is a genus of fungi in the family Clavicipitaceae.[1] Species of this genus cause witches' broom of bamboo in East Asia. Aciculosporium take grows intercellularly in witches' broom shoots, including shoot apical meristems.[2] The stroma are produced around the apex of the host shoots.
