Mycotrophic species of Trichoderma are among the most common fungi isolated from free soil, dead wood and as parasites on sporocarps of other fungi (mycoparasites). In addition, they undergo various other biotrophic associations ranging from rhizosphere colonization and endophytism up to facultative pathogenesis on such animals as roundworms and humans. Together with occurrence on a variety of ...

Two isolates of Trichoderma, which reduce the incidence of witches’broom disease caused in cocoa by Crinipellis perniciosa, were evaluated for their potential to produce hydrolases in liquid medium. Very low or no hydrolytic activity was produced in the absence of any substrate. The activities of chitinase, N-acetylglucosaminidase, β-1,3-glucanase, total cellulase, endoglucanase, arylβ-glucosid...

Helminthosporium (Bipolaris) causes a leaf spot disease in Chrysalidocarpus lutescens (cane palm) in Sri Lanka. The losses could reach 90% of production during rainy weather conditions. Field experiments were carried out to test the efficacy of treatment of seeds of C. lutescens against Helminthosporium infection. In the fungal growth tests the isolates T.harzianum 1, T.harzianum 2, T.viride 1,...

Damping-off of chilli caused by Pythium aphanidermatum is a major nursery disease in vegetables. In vitro experiments evaluated the effect of eight isolates of Trichoderma species (from chilli rhizosphere) were tested against P. aphanidermatum. All the Trichoderma species had varied antagonistic effects against the pathogen. Among them, TVC3 recorded maximum growth inhibition of P. aphanidermat...

We surveyed the Trichoderma (Hypocreales, Ascomycota) biodiversity in agricultural fields in four major agricultural provinces of East China. Trichoderma strains were identified based on molecular approaches and morphological characteristics. In three sampled seasons (spring, summer and autumn), 2078 strains were isolated and identified to 17 known species: T. harzianum (429 isolates), T. asper...
