AI Article Synopsis
- A new method is introduced to measure how well certain fungi can fight off other fungi in a lab setting.
- This method involves evaluating the size of fungal colonies to determine their biocontrol effectiveness.
- The biocontrol indices created from these measurements help to clearly describe how effective different Trichoderma strains are at controlling fungal growth.
Article Abstract
A novel method is proposed for the accurate evaluation of in vitro antagonism. Based on the measurement of areas of the fungal colonies, biocontrol indices were calculated, which are characteristic to the antagonistic Trichoderma strains. These indices provide a useful tool to describe the biocontrol abilities of fungi.
