Abstract:Abstract:Water scarcity is one of the main consequences of changing climate which adversely affects the plant growth and productivity. Enhanced root development results in increased surface area of active absorption for water and nutrient uptake which helps in tolerating abiotic stresses including drought in plants. Trichoderma is well known for its biocontrol and growth promontory effect in plants in addition to alleviate abiotic stress. In our study, thirty isolates of Trichoderma were grown on sterilized co… Show more
“…In a glass house study where mustard plants were raised with T. virens (Isolate PB23) treated seeds and subjected to water stress. The plants were able to thrive well and showed delayed response under water-deficit stress (Sharma and Singh, 2014). Trichoderma asperelloides -T203 was found to ameliorate seed germination under saline stress conditions due to its acquired tolerance to salt stress which is supposed to link with ACCD activity (Brotman et al, 2013).…”
