Abstract


Root rot of wheat caused by a complex of fungi (Fusarium graminearum, Fusarium culmorum, Fusarium avenaceum and Cochliobolus sativus) is one of the most important diseases of wheat culture in Algeria, Biological control of this disease by the use of 3 isolates of Trichoderma longibrachiatum showed that these isolates have an antagonistic effect against Fusarium graminearum in vitro and in vivo. In vitro and when inoculated in dual cultures with the 3 isolates T. longibrachiatum grew faster and reduced the growth and the conidia production of F. graminearum. The culture filtrates of the three isolates T. longibrachiatum reduced the conidia germination of F. graminearum. In vivo, the treatment of wheat seed by a spore suspension of T.longibrachiatum before sowing in a soil already infested with F. graminearum showed a net decrease of disease severity compared with the control. Differences between the efficacy of the three T. longibrachiatum isolates against F. graminearum in vitro and in vivo were noticed.
