This study aims to evaluate the phosphate solubilization potential of the Trichoderma spp. isolates found in the commercial product Trichoplus JCO. The strains were isolated, molecularly identified and grown in vitro. The soluble phosphate concentration was quantified at 3, 6, 9 and 12 days after transplanting. Rice was inoculated with the Trichoderma strains in greenhouse conditions with 10 to 60 x10 8 conidia per gram of rice and then planted. At 30 and 45 days after planting (DAP), plant growth characteristics were determined. The phosphate concentrations of most of the Trichoderma strains showed a general trend of increasing from days 3 to 9. At 30 DAP, Tr. Harz and Tr. TSM had a higher significant difference. At 45 DAP, the rice inoculated with Tr. Harz, Tr. Euc and Tr. TSM had the greatest increase in the total dry matter compared with the control. The rice inoculated with Tr. Euc and Tr. TSM had the best relative efficiencies, and the rice inoculated with Tr. Din and Tr. TSM demonstrated the highest P-UEF. Finally, the rice inoculated with Tr. Harz (T. asperelloides), Tr. Euc (T. harzianum) and Tr. TSM (T. harzianum) had the highest efficiency in phosphate solubilization with increases in rice biomass.

A B S T R A C TThe rhizosphere contains many microorganisms that can promote plant growth and protect the root system against infection by pathogens. Fungi of Trichoderma sp. are included in this group. The aim of this study was to evaluate efficiency of the inoculation of Trichoderma in agronomic performance of cowpea under field conditions, in the savanna in Gurupi, Tocantins, in harvests 2013/2014 to 2014/2015. The treatments consisted in seed treatment, with and without inoculation with Trichoderma asperellum UFT 201 with minimum concentration of viable conidia of 2x10 9 L -1 , at a dose of 20 g kg -1 of seed. Biomass evaluations were made on efficiency, initial and final stands and survival in the use of Trichoderma in the stand maintaining and productivity. The results indicated that the ability of bio-protection and plant growth promotion were of great importance for the biomass production, the stand maintaining and cowpea productivity. In both harvests, survival was superior in the plants treated with Trichoderma, 23.0 and 13.2%, respectively, and yields were 9.5% higher compared to control for the two harvests. In general, the inoculation of Trichoderma provided the best results in the biomass variables analyzed for the two crops with higher productivity.Keywords: biomass, productivity, Trichoderma, Vigna unguiculata. R E S U M OA rizosfera contém muitos microorganismos que podem promover o crescimento vegetal e proteger o sistema radicular de infeções por agentes patogénicos. Neste grupo incluem-se fungos de Trichoderma sp. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a eficiência da inoculação de Trichoderma na performance agronómica de feijão-frade em condições de campo, na savana em Gurupi, Tocantins, nas campanhas de 2013/2014 a 2014/2015. Os tratamentos consistiram sementes inoculadas (ou não) com Trichoderma asperellum UFT 201 com uma concentração de conídios viáveis mínima de 2x10 9 L -1 , numa dose de 20 g kg -1 de semente. Foram efetuadas avaliações de biomassa em termos de eficiência, populações iniciais e finais e sobrevivência de Trichoderma, e na manutenção e produtividade da cultura. Os resultados indicam que a capacidade de bioproteção e promoção do crescimento vegetal foram de grande importância para a produção de biomassa, a manutenção da cultura e a produtividade de feijão-frade. E mambas as campanhas a sobrevivência foi superior nas plantas tratadas comTrichoderma, 23,0 e 13,2% respetivamente, e as produtividades foram 9,5% superiores ao controlo em ambas as campanhas. Em termos globais, a inoculação com Trichoderma providenciou os melhores resultados nas diversas variáveis ilustradoras de biomasse para as duas campanhas, conduzindo a uma maior produtividade.
