e0“Treatment of seeds with Trichoderma improved plant growth and Th -treated plants exhibited substantial physiological adjustment in a saline environment compared to Th -untreated plants”
e1“seeds of maize and rice were coated with Trichoderma before sowing and salt treatment”
e2“better photosynthetic performance and higher pigment concentrations”
e3“Trichoderma harzianum ( Th -6) is an endophytic fungus that shows salt tolerance and establishes a symbiotic relationship with a host plant”
