To investigate the biodiversity of Trichoderma (Hypocreaceae) and their relation to sediment physical and chemical properties, we collected a total of 491 sediment samples from coastal wetlands (tidal flat and wetland) in Southeast China. Further, we applied two types of molecular approaches such as culture dependent and independent methods for identification of Trichoderma spp. A total of 254 ...

Background: Cellulose is the most abundant biomass on earth. The major players in cellulose degradation in nature are cellulases produced by microorganisms. Aerobic filamentous fungi are the main sources of commercial cellulase. Trichoderma reesei has been explored extensively for cellulase production; however, its major limitations are its low β-glucosidase activity and inefficiency in biomass...

The aim of the present study was to examine the abilities of twenty-four isolates belonging to ten different Trichoderma species (i.e., Trichoderma atroviride, Trichoderma citrinoviride, Trichoderma cremeum, Trichoderma hamatum, Trichoderma harzianum, Trichoderma koningiopsis, Trichoderma longibrachiatum, Trichoderma longipile, Trichoderma viride and Trichoderma viridescens) to inhibit the myce...

Fungal pathogens have caused severe damage to the commercial production of Pleurotus eryngii, the king oyster mushroom, by reducing production yield, causing deterioration of commercial value, and shortening shelf-life. Four strains of pathogenic fungi, including Trichoderma koningiopsis DC3, Phomopsis sp. MP4, Mucor circinelloides MP5, and Cladosporium bruhnei MP6, were isolated from the bottl...

Ink disease is a devastating of chestnut (Castanea sativa) worldwide, caused by Phytophthora species. The only management measures this are chemical and agronomic interventions. This work focuses on the evaluation in vitro antagonistic capacity 20 isolates Trichoderma spp. selected diseased orchard Tuscan Apennines (San Godenzo, Italy) for biocontrol xcambivora. Each isolate was tested to inves...

the effect of different isolates of trichoderma namely t. virens t65, t virens t90, t. virens t96, t. virens t122, t. brevicompactum t146, t. koningiopsis t149, t. viridecense t150, t. koningii as well as two trichodermin b and subtilin commercial bioproducts on growth promotion in wheat were studied through seed coating method in a compeletly randomized design in a glasshouse experiment. the i...
