These fungi reproduce asexually by production of conidia and chlamydospores and in wild habitats by ascospores. Trichoderma species are well known for their production of enzymes called Cell Wall Degrading Enzymes (CWDEs). All living organisms are made up of genes that code for a protein which performs the particular function. Some genes that play an important role in the biocontrol process are known as the biocontrol genes. These genes send some signals which help in secretion of proteins and enzymes that degrade the plant pathogens. These biocontrol genes can be cloned in huge amounts and can be used on large scale for commercial production. Some Trichoderma genes are also helpful in providing resistance to the biotic and abiotic stresses such as heat, drought and salt .The major biocontrol processes include antibiosis, mycoparasitism and providing plant nutrition. Keywords: Trichoderma; Biocontrol genes; Cell wall degrading have been preserved from this study. No further morphological enzymes differentiation of the anamorphs was attempted by Doi and Doi.

Therefore, onsite production of enzymes using low-value substrates might be an option to make a bio-based facility more economical, while improving environmental sustainability. Food manufacturing wastes (FMWs), such as olive mill solids, tomato pomace, and grape pomace, are some of the main wastes produced by the food industry in Chile. FMWs are mostly composed of lignocellulosic material, which is primarily made of cellulose. A fungal strain obtained from olive stones was identified as a Trichoderma sp. and characterized by molecular and morphological techniques. This strain was able to grow on three FMWs in both liquid and solid cultures. In liquid cultures, cellulase and β-glucosidase activities from the culture supernatants were quantified.

By exploiting the powerful enzymatic machinery of fungi, mycoremediation in contaminated sites aims at removing a wide range of pollutants in a cost-efficient and environmentally friendly manner. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) techniques are powerful tools for understanding the molecular basis of biotransformation of PAHs by selected fungal strains, allowing genome mining to identify genetic features of biotechnological value.

Henrique-Silva E-mail: [email protected] Genet. Mol. Res. 11 (2): 1544-1557 (2012) Received February 7, 2012 Accepted April 25, 2012 Published May 21, 2012 DOI http://dx.doi.org/10.4238/2012.May.21.11 ABSTRACT. Filamentous fungi from the genus Trichoderma have been widely investigated due to their considerable production of important biotechnological enzymes. Previous studies have demonstrated that the T. harzianum strain IOC-3844 has a high degree of cellulolytic activity. After excluding the native signal peptide, the open reading frame of the T. harzianum endoglucanase III enzyme was cloned in the expression vector pPICZαA, enabling protein secretion to the culture medium. The recombinant plasmid was used to transform Pichia pastoris. Recombinant expression in the selected clone yielded 300 mg pure enzyme per liter of induced medium. The recombinant enzyme proved to be active in a qualitative analysis using Congo red. A quantitative assay, using dinitrosalicylic acid, revealed a high degree of activity at pH 5.5 and around 48°C.

  • Hypocrea/Trichoderma (Ascomycota, Hypocreales, Hypocreaceae): Species with Green Ascospores
    CHAVERRI & SAMUELS Hypocrea/Trichoderma (Ascomycota, Hypocreales, Hypocreaceae): species with green ascospores Priscila Chaverri1* and Gary J. Samuels2 1The Pennsylvania State University, Department of Plant Pathology, Buckhout Laboratory, University Park, Pennsylvania 16802, U.S.A. and 2United States Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, Systematic Botany and My- cology Laboratory, Rm. 304, B-011A, 10300 Baltimore Avenue, Beltsville, Maryland 20705, U.S.A. Abstract: The systematics of species of Hypocrea with green ascospores and their Trichoderma anamorphs is presented. Multiple phenotypic characters were analysed, including teleomorph and anamorph, as well as col- ony morphology and growth rates at various temperatures. In addition, phylogenetic analyses of two genes, the RNA polymerase II subunit (RPB2) and translation elongation factor 1-alpha (EF-1α), were performed. These analyses revealed that species of Hypocrea with green ascospores and Trichoderma anamorphs are derived from within Hypocrea but do not form a monophyletic group. Therefore, Creopus and Chromocrea, genera formerly segregated from Hypocrea only based on their coloured ascospores, are considered synonyms of Hy- pocrea. The present study showed that phenotypic characters alone are generally not helpful in understanding phylogenetic relationships in this group of organisms, because teleomorph characters are generally highly con- served and anamorph characters tend to be morphologically divergent within monophyletic lineages or clades. The species concept used here for Hypocrea/Trichoderma is based on a combination of phenotypic and geno- typic characteristics. In this study 40 species of Hypocrea/Trichoderma having green ascospores are described and illustrated. Dichotomous keys to the species are given. The following species are treated (names in bold are new species or new combinations): H.
