This book provides an update on the advances in Trichoderma research, covering most of the aspects related to the biology, genetics, genomics and applications of Trichoderma species. An overview of the importance of Trichoderma spp. in agriculture, industry and medicine (chapter 1) is presented. The remaining articles are broadly classified under the headings taxonomy and physiology (chapters 2-7), interactions of Trichoderma spp. with plants (chapters 8-12), and applications and significance (chapter 13-17). This book is intended for those involved in research and development activities dealing with Trichoderma.
