TLDR
A number of strains of this mould are found which produce another substance, which is proposed to name ‘viridin’, characterized by remarkably high fungistatic activity.
Abstract
THE mould Trichoderma viride Pers. ex Fries is generally known to possess marked powers of antagonism to other fungi. It has been previously shown1 that some strains of this mould produce gliotoxin. We have recently found a number of strains which produce another substance, which we propose to name 'viridin', characterized by remarkably high fungistatic activity.

Taxonomy and phylogeny of Gliocladium analysed from nuclear large subunit ribosomal DNA sequences

TL;DR: The results indicate that Gliocladium is polyphyletic and that G. penicillioides, G. roseum, and Trichoderma virens, are generically distinct.

Trichoderma: Systematics, the Sexual State, and Ecology

Gary J. Samuels
- 01 Feb 2006 - 
TL;DR: A chronology is presented that charts the development of a genus and species concept in Trichoderma, and a suggestion is made to modify the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature to enable adoption of a single generic name for Trichodma/Hypocrea.

Stereoselective transition metal-catalysed higher-order carbocyclisation reactions.

TL;DR: This tutorial review details the historical development of higher-order carbocyclisation reactions, specifically the variants of [m+2+2] that involve carbon-based pi-systems, where m = 2, 3 and 4, in the context of critical developments with various transition metal complexes.

Production of Gliotoxin by Trichoderma viride

TL;DR: It is suggested that it is extremely probable that the fungus used, by Weindling was not G. fimbriatum, but was a Trichoderma as he Originally supposed, and that strains of Trichodma viride produce gliotoxin.
