bZIP63.5 Regulates a Zinc‐Finger Mediated Detoxification Network in Trichoderma Harzianum for Enhanced Biocontrol of Alternaria alternata

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.
The bZIP63.5 transcription factor, activated by Alternaria alternata stress, directly upregulates zinc‐finger transcription factors (Zn2CyS6 and C2H2 types), which in turn enhance the expression of downstream detoxification and defence‐related genes, collectively improving the biocontrol efficacy of Trichoderma harzianum.

Involvement of Trichoderma harzianum Epl-1 Protein in the Regulation of Botrytis Virulence- and Tomato Defense-Related Genes

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Several Trichoderma spp. are well known for their ability to: (i) act as important biocontrol agents against phytopathogenic fungi; (ii) function as biofertilizers; (iii) increase the tolerance of plants to biotic and abiotic stresses; and (iv) induce ...

Further studies on a mycoparasitic basidiomycete species [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1976
An unidentified basidiomycete was found capable of parasitizing 37 of 50 isolates of fungi tested as hosts. All phytopathogenic fungi tested, as well as most of the saprophytic fungi, were susceptible to this mycoparasite. In some cases, reproductive structures as well as hyphae were infected.

Population Genomics of a Rare and a Common Wood–Inhabiting Fungal Species Across Europe

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 3, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Many species have become threatened during the Anthropocene, requiring conservation strategies based on biological evidence. Wood‐inhabiting fungi face multiple threats due to a complex interplay of a short lifespan, removal of dead wood as a resource and climate change.

Mycelial dynamics in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 2, Page 691-713, January 2026.
Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), similar to other filamentous fungi, develop extensive hyphal networks collectively known as mycelia. AMF mycelia are complemented by a variety of specialized structures such as spores, vesicles, and auxiliary cells, which together form integrated and functionally diverse AMF networks.

Arabidopsis phospholipid modifications mediate cellulase‐induced resistance to a fungal peptide antibiotic by imposing cell polarity

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 2, Page 975-991, January 2026.
Summary Plant‐symbiotic Trichoderma fungi attack microorganisms by secreting antibiotic membrane‐permeabilising peptaibols such as alamethicin. These peptaibols also permeabilise plant root epidermis plasma membranes (PMs), but mild pretreatment with Trichoderma cellulase activates a unique cellulase‐induced resistance to alamethicin (CIRA), via an ...

Journey of Trichoderma from Pilot Scale to Mass Production: A Review

Agriculture, 2023
Trichoderma spp. has the ability to inhibit fungal plant pathogens through several mechanisms like the production of hydrolytic enzymes, mycoparasitism, coiling, and antibiosis and is therefore recommended as a potential and native biocontrol agent for ...

Pea‐Saving Partners: Bacillus and Pseudomonas Combat Downy Mildew in Pea Crops

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Strains of Bacillus velezensis or Pseudomonas fluorescens or their filtrates showed potential as biopesticides against the pea downy mildew pathogen Peronospora viciae f. sp. pisi in vitro and in planta with a synergistic effect for the dual foliar and drench application.

Geotrichopsis mycoparasitica as a destructive mycoparasite [PDF]

Mycological Research, 1992
Geotrichopsis mycoparasitica in vitro in dual cultures was shown to be a biotrophic destructive mycoparasite, capable of parasitizing twenty seven fungi, including some oomycetes, zygomycetes and hyphomycetes, with varied susceptibility. The parasite usually produced short lateral hyphal branches or clamp-like structures to entwine or clasp the host ...

Tri‐trophic interactions of soil mite Sancassania polyphyllae (Acari: Acaridae) with fungal biocontrol agents

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Mycophagous invertebrates can significantly impact the efficacy of fungal biocontrol agents; yet the interaction between these agents and Sancassania polyphyllae (Acari: Acaridae), commonly found in soil ecosystems, remains poorly understood. Our study demonstrates that Sa.
