Antifungal chemical signatures of Trichoderma isolates against the incitants of Calonectria leaf blight of Eucalyptus

Description

India has a net planted area of 3.9 mha of Eucalyptus out of  the world total of 20.6 mha (Iglesias-Trabado et al. 2009).
Calonectria Leaf Blight (CLB) is a serious constraint to Eucalyptus cultivation in India and worldwide (Bose et al. 2022a).
The Calonectria species known to cause CLB of Eucalyptus species in India include, Ca. reteaudii, Ca. lauri, Ca. kyotensis, Ca. indusiata , Ca. brassicae, Ca. cylindrospora, Ca. colhounii , Ca. cerciana and Ca. pseudoreteaudii (Bose et al. 2022a ; Bose et al. 2022b).
The present study aimed to investigate the efficacy of  Trichoderma volatiles against two CLB pathogens, Calonectria cerciana and Ca. pseudoreteaudii recently reported from northern India (Bose et al. 2020, Bose et al. 2022)
