Pythium-induced damping-off of cucumber is a major constraint to cucumber production in different parts of the world. Although chemical fungicides are used for managing this disease, they have many drawbacks to the environment. The ability of the antagonistic fungi isolated from the rhizosphere and endosphere of Dactyloctenium robecchii and Moraea sisyrinchium in the control of soilborne pathogen Pythium aphanidermatum was inspected. Native Trichoderma isolates, Trichoderma ghanense and Trichoderma citrinoviride, were isolated from plant stem and soil samples collected from Al-Seeb, Oman. Using a dual culture technique, the antagonistic activity of the fungal isolates against P. aphanidermatum was examined in vitro. Among Trichoderma isolates, T. ghanense was more efficient in restraining the mycelial growth of P. aphanidermatum, causing an inhibition percentage of 44.6%. Further, T. citrinoviride induced significantly lower cessation of P. aphanidermatum mycelial growth (31.3%). Microscopic and electrolyte leakage inspection of the pathogen mycelia depicted extreme morphological malformations in their mycelium, which can be attributed to the antifungal metabolites of antagonists. Greenhouse studies demonstrated the effectivity of T. ghanense in controlling Pythium damping-off of cucumber plants, where the number of surviving plants was over 90% when the biocontrol agents were used compared to 0 in the control plants. Furthermore, treatment of the plants with the antagonists promoted growth characteristics of plants compared to uninoculated plants. This included improvements in shoot and root lengths, leaf length and width, and dry weight. These findings suggest that T. ghanense and T. citrinoviride can be developed as alternatives to synthetic chemical fungicides to manage soilborne pathogens of cucumber. This research is also the first to clarify the biocontrol ability of T. citrinoviride and T. ghanense against cucumber damping-off caused by P. aphanidermatum.

“…Most studies had demonstrated that Trichoderma strains could inhibit pathogenic fungi through nutrient and spatial competition, hyperparasitism, and the production of antimycotic secondary metabolites, while they could also promote plant growth and enhance plant stress resistance [35]. Ecological niche competition is a crucial mechanism of biocontrol microorganisms for preventing disease in biocontrol.…”

Strawberry root rot caused by Neopestalotiopsis clavispora is one of the main diseases of strawberries and significantly impacts the yield and quality of strawberry fruit. Currently, the only accessible control methods are fungicide sprays, which could have an adverse effect on the consumers of the strawberries. Biological control is becoming an alternative method for the control of plant diseases to replace or decrease the application of traditional synthetic chemical fungicides. Trichoderma spp. are frequently used as biological agents to prevent root rot in strawberries. In order to provide highly effective biocontrol resources for controlling strawberry root rot caused by Neopestalotiopsis clavispora, the biocontrol mechanism, the control effects of T. asperellum CMT10 against strawberry root rot, and the growth-promoting effects on strawberry seedlings were investigated using plate culture, microscopy observation, and root drenching methods. The results showed that CMT10 had obvious competitive, antimycotic, and hyperparasitic effects on N. clavispora CMGF3. The CMT10 could quickly occupy nutritional space, and the inhibition rate of CMT10 against CMGF3 was 65.49% 7 d after co-culture. The inhibition rates of volatile metabolites and fermentation metabolites produced by CMT10 were 79.67% and 69.84% against CMGF3, respectively. The mycelium of CMT10 can act as a hyperparasite by contacting, winding, and penetrating the hyphae of CMGF3. Pot experiment showed that the biocontrol efficiency of CMT10 on strawberry root rot caused by Neopestalotiopsis clavispora was 63.09%. CMT10 promoted strawberry growth, plant height, root length, total fresh weight, root fresh weight, stem fresh weight, and root dry weight by 20.09%, 22.39%, 87.11%, 101.58%, 79.82%, and 72.33%, respectively. Overall, this study showed the ability of T. asperellum CMT10 to control strawberry root rot and its potential to be developed as a novel biocontrol agent to replace chemical fungicides for eco-friendly and sustainable agriculture.

Kromium heksavalen (Cr6+) merupakan polutan kromium dengan toksisitas lebih tinggi dibandingkan kromium trivalen. Tagetes erecta merupakan tanaman fitoremediator yang sudah banyak diteliti untuk meremediasi lingkungan yang tercemar polutan Cr. Trichoderma viride adalah satu jenis jamur yang dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai stimulator pertumbuhan tanaman pada lingkungan yang tercemar logam berat. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis efek T. viride terhadap laju pertumbuhan tanaman T. erecta pada kondisi cekaman logam Cr6+. Penelitian ini dilakukan menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap dua faktor. Faktor pertama adalah dosis kerapatan spora T. viride terdiri dari 0 (tanpa) dan 108 sebanyak 10 ml/tanaman. Faktor kedua adalah konsentrasi Cr6+ terdiri dari 0, 10, 50, dan 100 mg Cr6+/L. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa T. viride mampu meningkatkan secara nyata laju pertumbuhan tinggi tanaman, jumlah daun dan jumlah bunga T. erecta pada kondisi cekaman Cr6+. T. viride mampu meningkatkan tinggi tanaman kontrol dan tanaman yang diberi perlakuan Cr6+ 10, 50 dan 100 mg Cr6+/L berturut-turut sebesar 5,49%, 4,52%, 7,80%, dan 9,88%, sedangkan jumlah daun tanaman yang diberi perlakuan T. viride berturut-turut meningkat sebesar 8,01%, 10,17%, 14,33% dan 18,95% dibandingkan tanaman T. erecta tanpa perlakuan penambahan T. viride. Jumlah bunga pada tanaman yang diberi perlakuan T. viride dengan cekaman Cr6+ sebesar 10, 50 dan 100 mg Cr6+/L mengalami peningkatan berturut-turut sebesar 65,38%, 52,63%, 64,29%, dan 70,00% dibandingkan tanaman tanpa perlakuan T. viride. Hexavalent chromium (Cr6+) is a chromium pollutant with higher toxicity than trivalent chromium. Tagetes erecta is a phytoremediator plant that has been widely studied to remediate environments contaminated with Cr pollutants. Trichoderma viride is a species of fungus that can be used as a plant growth stimulator in environments contaminated with heavy metals. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of T. viride on the growth rate of T. erecta plants under Cr6+ metal stress conditions. This research was conducted using a two-factor completely randomized design. The first factor is the dose of T. viride spore density consisting of 0 (control) and 108 as much as 10 ml/plant. The second factor is the Cr6+ concentration consisting of 0, 10, 50, and 100 mg Cr6+/L. The results showed that T. viride was able to significantly increase the growth rate of plant height, number of leaves and number of flowers of T. erecta under Cr6+ stress conditions. T. viride was able to increase the height of control plants and plants treated with Cr6+ 10, 50 and 100 mg Cr6+/L respectively by 5.49%, 4.52%, 7.80% and 9.88%, while the number leaves of plants treated with T. viride increased by 8.01%, 10.17%, 14.33% and 18.95% respectively compared to T. erecta plants without the addition of T. viride. The number of flowers on plants treated with T. viride with Cr6+ treatments of 10, 50 and 100 mg Cr6+/L increased respectively by 65.38%, 52.63%, 64.29% and 70.00% compared to plants without T. viride treatment.
