Trichovariability in rhizosphere soil samples and their biocontrol potential against downy mildew pathogen in pearl millet

Abstract The present work is aimed to examine the genetic variability and the distribution pattern of beneficial Trichoderma spp. isolated from rhizosphere samples and their mode of action in improving the plant health. A total of 131 suspected fungi were isolated from the rhizospheric soil and 91 i...
