Evaluation of Substrates for Mass Multiplication of Potential Native Trichoderma Isolates

摘要

Decades of laboratory experiments on biological control have given birth to a potential antagonistic fungus viz., Trichoderma. One of the critical obstacles in the application of biocontrol under field conditions is the paucity of methods for mass culturing and soil application of antagonists. This problem can be overcome by development of suitable delivery systems for antagonists. Mukhopadhyay (1987) has comprehensively reviewed the various growth media used for mass multiplication of Trichoderma sp
