efficient use of agricultural wastes due to their recycling and possible production of cost effective materials, have economic and ecological advantages. a biological method used for degrading agricultural wastes is a new method for improving the digestibility of these materials and favoring the ease of degradation by other microorganisms. this research was carried out to study the possible bio...

alpha-1,3-Glucanases (mutanases) are currently of great interest due to their potential use in the field of dental care. These enzymes have been reported in several bacteria, yeasts and fungi, but up to now, characterization of this family of proteins has been relatively poor. In this study, we identify and characterize a mutanase gene from Trichoderma harzianum CCM F-340. Sequence analysis, on...

in order to investigate the effects of municipal waste compost and benefit fungi of trichoderma species on seedling emergence parameters, growth and some micronutrients uptake of garden cress a pot experiment was carried out in factorial arrangement based on randomized complete block design with 3 replications. treatments consisted of three levels of municipal waste compost (15, 30, 45 mg ha-1 ...

ABSTRACT Nine transformants of Trichoderma longibrachiatum with extra copies of the egl1 gene were studied for mitotic stability, endoglucanase production, and biocontrol activity against Pythium ultimum on cucumber seedlings. The transformants showed a significantly higher level of expression of the egl1 gene in comparison to the wild type under both inducing and noninducing growth conditions....

A green house nursery study was conducted to assess the interaction between arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus, Glomus aggregatum and some plant growth promoting rhizomicrooganisms (PGPR's), Bacillus coagulans and Trichoderma harzianum, in soil and their consequent effect on growth, nutrition and content of secondary metabolities of Solanum viarum seedlings. Triple inoculation of G. aggregatum+...

The cucumber (Cucumis sativa L.) is often subjected to several fungal diseases. Rhizoctonia solani-induced damping-off and root rot are the most common diseases reported from commercial greenhouses of eastern area Saudi Arabia. objective current study explore antagonistic activity four Trichoderma species against R. solani in vitro vivo. Ten isolates (eight belonging AG-4 two AG-A AG2-1) were s...
