Different strains of Trichoderma control almost every pathogenic fungus for which control has been sought. However, most Trichoderma strains are more efficient for control of some pathogens than others, and may be largely ineffective against some fungi. Trichoderma spp. continue to be a major source of contamination and crop loss for mushroom ...
The species T. aggressivum (formerly T. harzianum biotype 4) has been found to infect button mushrooms. [10] [11] Trichoderma spp. can also be pathogenic to plants. Trichoderma viride is the causal agent of green mold rot of onion. [12] A strain of Trichoderma viride is a known cause of dieback of Pinus nigra seedlings. [13]
Different marine habitats support very different fungal communities. Fungi can be found in niches ranging from ocean depths and coastal waters to mangrove swamps and estuaries with low salinity levels. [5] Marine fungi can be saprobic or parasitic on animals, saprobic or parasitic on algae, saprobic on plants or saprobic on dead wood. [2]
Ocean chlorophyll concentration as a proxy for marine primary production. Green indicates where there are a lot of phytoplankton, while blue indicates where there are few phytoplankton. – NASA Earth Observatory 2019. [1] Marine primary production is the chemical synthesis in the ocean of organic compounds from atmospheric or dissolved carbon ...
This is a list of binomial names in the fungal genus Trichoderma Pers. (1801) (in the family of Hypocreaceae), with just accepted species and not including synonyms. 'Outline of Fungi and fungus-like taxa' by Wijayawardene et al. lists up to (400+) species (in 2020), [1] and around 466 records are listed by Species Fungorum (with up to 12 former species).
Marine microorganisms have been variously estimated to make up about 70%, [4] or about 90%, [5] [6] of the biomass in the ocean. Taken together they form the marine microbiome . Over billions of years this microbiome has evolved many life styles and adaptations and come to participate in the global cycling of almost all chemical elements. [ 7 ]
The pelagic food web, showing the central involvement of marine microorganisms in how the ocean imports nutrients from and then exports them back to the atmosphere and ocean floor. A marine food web is a food web of marine life. At the base of the ocean food web are single-celled algae and other plant-like organisms known as phytoplankton.
The bathyal zone is the lower section of the midwater zone, and encompasses the depths of 1,000 to 4,000 metres (3,300 to 13,100 ft). [23] Light does not reach this zone, giving it its nickname "the midnight zone"; due to the lack of light, it is less densely populated than the epipelagic zone, despite being much larger. [24]
