TLDR
Evaluated interactions between four arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and the beneficial fungus Trichoderma harzianum, inoculated in a greenhouse nursery, with regard to their effects on melon crop growth under conventional and integrated-system field conditions, and the biocontrol effect against Fusarium wilt found the AMF-inoculated plants were effective in controlling Fusaria wilt.

Induction of terpenoid synthesis in cotton roots and control of Rhizoctonia solani by seed treatment with Trichoderma virens. [Erratum: 2003 Dec., v. 93, no. 12, p. 1606.]

TL;DR: It appears that induction of defense response, particularly terpenoid synthesis, in cotton roots by T. virens may be an important mechanism in the biological control by this fungus of R. solani-incited cotton seedling disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deciphering the hormonal signalling network behind the systemic resistance induced by Trichoderma harzianum in tomato

TL;DR: Together, the results indicate that although TISR induced in tomato against necrotrophs is mainly based on boosted JA-dependent responses, the pathways regulated by the plant hormones SA- and ABA are also required for successful T ISR development.

Roles of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi on Plant Growth and Performance: Importance in Biotic and Abiotic Stressed Regulation

TL;DR: The contribution of AMF on plant growth and performance in stressed environments is presented and it is shown that AMF improve the quality of soil aggregation, drive the structure of plant and bacteria communities, and enhance ecosystem stability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trichoderma volatiles effecting Arabidopsis: from inhibition to protection against phytopathogenic fungi

TL;DR: It is concluded that products that are based on Trichoderma volatiles have the potential being a useful biocontrol agent in agriculture and that A. thaliana preexposed to 6PP showed significantly reduced symptoms when challenged with Botrytis cinerea and Alternaria brassicicola, indicating that defense-activated plants subsequently became more resistant to pathogen attack.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trichoderma harzianum favours the access of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to non-host Brassicaceae roots and increases plant productivity.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that simultaneous application of a Trichoderma harzianum biocontrol strain and an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) formulation produces a significant increase in the colonization of the rhizosphere of Brassicaceae plants.

Improved procedures for clearing roots and staining parasitic and vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi for rapid assessment of infection.

TL;DR: To improve stain penetration and clearing in whole mycorrhizal roots of onion and other host plants, and in roots infected by other fungi, the following two procedures are developed, which give deeply stained fungal structures which show distinctly against the outlines of the cells in the cortex of intact roots.
Journal ArticleDOI

An evaluation of techniques for measuring vesicular arbuscular mycorrhizal infection in roots

TL;DR: The standard error of four methods of assessment based on observations of stained root samples either randomly arranged in a petri dish or mounted on microscope slides are calculated.

Soil Fertility and Biodiversity in Organic Farming

TL;DR: Results from a 21-year study of agronomic and ecological performance of biodynamic, bioorganic, and conventional farming systems in Central Europe found crop yields to be 20% lower in the organic systems, although input of fertilizer and energy was reduced.

Mechanisms Employed by Trichoderma Species in the Biological Control of Plant Diseases: The History and Evolution of Current Concepts.

TL;DR: Past research indicates that the mechanisms are many and varied, even within the genus Trichoderma, and in order to make the most effective use of biocontrol agents for the control of plant diseases, it must understand how the agents work and what their limitations are.
