Potential biological control agents of Geosmithia morbida restrict fungal pathogen growth via mycoparasitism and antibiosis by Onufrak, Aaron J., Gazis, Romina, Gwinn, Kimberly, Klingeman, William, Khodaei, Sima, Perez Oñate, Luis I., Finnell, Autumn, Givens, Spencer, Chen, Cristine, Holdridge, David R., Hadziabdic, Denita

“…Additionally, one metabolite-producing Trichoderma isolate, TN4-47, completely inhibited the growth of all three G. morbida isolates across all tested metabolite concentrations and had comparatively greater tolerance to juglone compared to other Trichoderma isolates. Future lines of research should focus on characterizing the active antagonistic compound present in the metabolite filtrates, determine the mode of action of the active component(s), and elucidate how abiotic and biotic factors may influence the growth, persistence, and antagonistic activity of candidate biological control agents in planta.…”
