Trichoderma isolates on plant growth and development
have important economical implications such as
shortening the plant growth period and time, as well as
improving plant vigor to overcome biotic and/or abiotic
stresses, resulting in increase plant productivity and
yields. In addition, the reduction in lignification which was
induced by T. harzianum strain T22 have a beneficial
effect in enhancing fresh state of Z. maize stalks.
