The paper aims to study the morphological, physiological, molecular characterization and bio-formulation of Trichoderma harzianum (Th Azad) and Trichoderma viride 01PP-8315, an effective fungicide and a biological control agent too that protects the plants and seeds from other pathogenic fungi. The physiologic study is done in an attempt to find the effective management of the disease caused by soil borne pathogens. Trichoderma harzianum (Th Azad) and Trichoderma viride 01PP-8315 isolated from the infected soil samples of Pigeon pea fields and grown at preferable temperatures, pH and different solid and liquid culture media. Most preferable temperature for the growth and sporulation of Trichoderma harzianum (Th Azad) and Trichoderma viride 01PP-8315 has been observed up to 30ºC (210.5 mg dry weight of mycelium). A detailed morphology of the strain is done in this study including .. View More»
