“…Colonization of roots and leaves by Trichoderma can prime plant defense, allowing for powerful plant responses to following pathogen threats [19]. However, in addition to biopesticide action, certain Trichoderma strains have been shown to exhibit biostimulant activity, plant growth promotion, enhanced yield and nutritional quality, and the ability to mitigate the negative effects of abiotic stressors [20][21][22]. Therefore, Trichoderma has evolved from a mycoparasitic biocontrol agent (BCA) to one with numerous features such as pathogen antagonism, pathogen competition for resources, induction of systemic resistance in the host, overall plant growth promotion, and reduction of abiotic stressors.…”

Traditional nanoparticle (NP) synthesis methods are expensive and generate hazardous products. It is essential to limit the risk of toxicity in the environment from the chemicals as high temperature and pressure is employed in chemical and physical procedures. One of the green strategies used for sustainable manufacturing is microbial nanoparticle synthesis, which connects microbiology with nanotechnology. Employing biocontrol agents Trichoderma and Hypocrea (Teleomorphs), an ecofriendly and rapid technique of nanoparticle biosynthesis has been reported in several studies which may potentially overcome the constraints of the chemical and physical methods of nanoparticle biosynthesis. The emphasis of this review is on the mycosynthesis of several metal nanoparticles from Trichoderma species for use in agri-food applications. The fungal-cell or cell-extract-derived NPs (mycogenic NPs) can be applied as nanofertilizers, nanofungicides, plant growth stimulators, nano-coatings, and so on. Further, Trichoderma-mediated NPs have also been utilized in environmental remediation approaches such as pollutant removal and the detection of pollutants, including heavy metals contaminants. The plausible benefits and pitfalls associated with the development of useful products and approaches to trichogenic NPs are also discussed.

Rhizospheric soil is enriched with diverse microbial communities, which give rise to sophisticated plant-microbes interactions via chemical communication. The bacteria attain communication through quorum sensing and lead to biofilm formation, developing connections between the cell density, and altering gene expression. Such processes include diffusion and accumulation of signal molecules such as autoinducer i.e. acyl-homoserine lactones, Autoinducer-2 (AI-2), QS pheromone, etc. in the environment and trigger the expression of the gene. Due to increment in cell density, bacteria produce the substances that inhibit the growth of pathogens, fix nitrogen and optimize nodule formation. Moreover, the adaptability of microbial communities under stress conditions directly/indirectly was correlated with host plant growth. The plants and soil microorganisms equally face the abiotic stresses and may cause environmental tolerance and adaptability via complex physiological and cellular mechanisms. The recent knowledge of the plant-microbe relationship and their communication mechanisms can be helpful in the development and commercialization of agricultural practices to improve desired crop health and productivity under various abiotic and biotic stresses. This chapter explores such habiting microbial communications in rhizosphere attributing to soil environment in various means.
