“…As might be expected, the PTR-Qi-TOF-MS analysis showed that many VOCs were present in similar abundance in samples from the three T. harzianum strains, not showing significant differences at the two time points considered, such as those putatively identified as decanal, acetaldehyde, 2,4-dimethylfuran, furan, formaldehyde, 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene, 6,10-dimethyl-5,9-undecadien-2-one (geranylacetone), p -cymene, methanethiol, 3-methylacetophenone, 2-methoxy-4-methylphenol (=creosol), sesquiterpenes, ethanol, methanol, hexenal isomeres and cedrol, molecules all known to be normally emitted by different microbes, including Trichoderma spp. [ 18 , 38 , 50 , 72 ]. However, no significant differences in the production levels of 6-PP and its derivatives were detected among the three strains of T. harzianum under the experimental condition of the present study.…”
