General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function expression of enzyme gene tri5 in the biocontrol strain Trichoderma harzianum CECT 2413 results in production of trichodiene in parallel with a reduction of ergosterol biosynthesis and an increase in the level of squalene. Transformants expressing tri5 display low chitinase activity and induced expression of Botrytis cinerea BOT genes, although their total antagonistic potential against phytopathogenic fungi is not reduced. Volatile organic compounds released by the tri5-transformant induce expression of tomato defence genes related to salicylic acid, and trichodiene itself strongly induces the expression of salicylic acid-responsive genes and reduces the development of lateral roots Trichoderma harzianum
