“…Most Trichoderma strains also produce volatile and non-volatile toxic metabolites that inhibit colonization by antagonized microorganisms; among these Trichoderma: A Biofertilizer and a Bio-Fungicide for Sustainable Crop Production DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.102405 metabolites, the production of harzianic acid, alamethicins, tricholin, peptaibols, antibiotics, 6-penthyl-a-pyrone, massoilactone, viridin, gliovirin, glisoprenins, heptelidic acid and others have been described [47][48][49][50]. This phenomenon has been observed in various fungi including Trichoderma, which can produce a multitude of compounds with antagonistic properties including cell wall degrading enzymes such as cellulase, xylanase, pectinase, glucanase, lipase, amylase, arabinase, and protease, volatile metabolites such as 6-n-pentyl-2H-pyran-2-one (6-PAP) [51-53], and several antibiotics such as trichodermin, trichodermol, gliovirin, gliotoxin, viridin, herzianolide, pyrones, peptaibols, ethylene and formic aldehyde [50, 54,55]. In general, strains of T. virens with the best efficiency as biocontrol agents can produce gliovirin [50].…”
