Trichoderma: microscopic fungi allies of agricultural crops
Keywords:
biocontrol, biofertilizers, microorganismsAbstract
Nitrogen fertilizers are the main source of nutrition and synthetic fungicides are the main method of pest and disease control used in agriculture in Mexico. However, the change in awareness regarding the consumption of products from organic agriculture is increasing and with it the search for eco-friendly alternatives applicable in agriculture. Fungi of the genus Trichoderma are an excellent option, thanks to their different mechanisms of action they stimulate growth in plants and compete against many phytopathogenic fungi, helping plants tolerate diseases.
