Trichoderma asperellum Samuels, Lieckf & Nirenberg [1] is a species of fungus in the family Hypocreaceae.[2] It can be distinguished from T. viride by molecular and phenotypic characteristics. The most important molecular characteristics are divergent ITS-1 and 28S sequences and RFLP's of the endochitinase gene. Main phenotypic characters are conidial ornamentation and arrangement and branching of the conidiophores.
Important Isolates
[edit]This species has been used commercially and experimentally as a biopesticide for plant disease control: some commercial isolates were previously placed in T. harzianum.
