Biotechnology and Environmental applications of Trichoderma spp.
TLDR
The genus Trichoderma is multicultural soil-borne fungi found in different ecosystems that are highly successful colonizers of their habitats and a new fungal source for the production of cyclosporin A as well as various hydrolytic enzymes with industrial importance.Abstract:
The genus Trichoderma is multicultural soil-borne fungi found in different ecosystems. They are highly successful colonizers of their habitats. Genus Trichoderma is capable of dealing with various environments such as compost, agricultural soils, rhizosphere, and waste material. Therefore, different strains of Trichoderma have been applied in agriculture, bioremediation, waste management, and biotechnology. Many Trichoderma species act as biological control agents and plant growth promoters. Additionally, the genus Trichoderma is a new fungal source for the production of cyclosporin A as well as various hydrolytic enzymes with industrial importance.read more

Chengxian Sun,Shunjia Li,Kai Wang,Hongqiang Feng,Cai-Ping Tian,Xiaogang Liu,Xiang Li,Xinmin Yin,Yanmei Wang,Jizhen Wei,Shiheng An +10 more
TL;DR: Cyclosporin A shows excellent insecticidal activity against FAW through significant suppression of calcineurin (CaN) activity, which is a new target for pest control, and reduces FAW ovarian size and female fecundity, which suggests that it has great potential to suppress FAW colony formation.

Supporting Online Material for: Ethanol Can Contribute To Energy and Environmental Goals
TL;DR: This article evaluated six representative analyses of fuel ethanol and found that current corn ethanol technologies are much less petroleum-intensive than gasoline but have greenhouse gas emissions similar to those of gasoline, and that large-scale use of ethanol for fuel will almost certainly require cellulosic technology.

TL;DR: It is already clear that large-scale use of ethanol for fuel will almost certainly require cellulosic technology and new metrics that measure specific resource inputs are developed, but further research into environmental metrics is needed.
