Abstract
In vitro, Trichoderma album, Trichoderma harzianum, Trichoderma koningii, Trichoderma viride and Trichoderma virens showed antagonistic effect against the most pathogenic isolate (Sc2) of Sclerotium cepivorum, the cause of onion white rot disease. Five Trichoderma preparations of each Trichoderma sp. were prepared on wheat bran powder to be used for controlling white rot disease of onion. Greenhouse and field experiments followed the same trend where T. harzianum and T. koningii were the most effective in reducing the incidence and severity of white rot disease compared with the control. Trichoderma species preparations caused promotion to vegetative parameters of onion plants in pots and increase bulb productivity in filed. In this regard, T. harzianum and T. koningii were the most effective. A positive correlation was found between the biocontrol activity of Trichoderma species preparations and enhancement of peroxidase, polyphenoloxidase and chitinase enzymes in onion plants to resist infection with S. cepivorum.
