Q.What Can I Do for My Zucchini Plant?

Angely1914 added on May 26, 2011 | Answered

It had something that looks like white mold or fungus at the base of the plant, it has fallen over and burst open and there is this orange-yellow stuff coming out of it. The plant looks healthy everywhere else. I don’t see any worms, or know where to look.

It sounds like you may have vine borers and the damage to the base has attracted additional fungus. This article will help you with the vone borers:
