- Intervention effect Trichoderma erinaceum applied alone significantly suppressed the infection rate of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum in common bean.
- Intervention effect Trichoderma viride applied alone significantly suppressed the infection rate of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum in common bean.
- Intervention effect Trichoderma erinaceum applied alone increased the survival rate of common bean plants by 74.5%.
- Intervention effect Trichoderma viride applied alone increased the survival rate of common bean plants by 74.5%.
- Intervention effect The combination of both Trichoderma species increased the survival rate of common bean plants by 87.5% compared with the individual Trichoderma applications.
- Intervention effect Exogenous Trichoderma supplementation activated antioxidative enzymes (peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase, superoxide dismutase, catalase) in common bean.
- Intervention effect Exogenous Trichoderma supplementation activated ascorbic acid in common bean.
- Intervention effect Trichoderma erinaceum and T. viride, alone or combined, reduced hydrogen peroxide and superoxide-free radical accumulation in pathogen-challenged common bean.
- Intervention effect Bioprimed common bean plants showed markedly increased photopigments.
- Intervention effect Combined inoculation with the two Trichoderma isolates gave the highest growth parameters in common bean compared with individual inoculation.
- Recommendation The combination of T. erinaceum and T. viride can be effectively used as an alternative to control white mold and stem rot caused by S. sclerotiorum in common bean.
