Abstract
Microcycle conidiation in Trichoderma hamatum and T. harzianum has bee n achieved in complete darkness for the first time. The time required for mass conidiation without intervening vegetative growth was decreas ed to 24 h instead of 6 to 7 days. The conidia produced by microcycle conidiation were viable and had pigmentation and antagonistic behaviou r similar to those of the parental stock cultures.
