A novel salt-tolerant strain Trichoderma atroviride HN082102.1 isolated from marine habitat alleviates salt stress and diminishes cucumber root rot caused by Fusarium oxysporum

Abstract

This is the first report of salt-tolerant T. atroviride isolated from marine habitat showing antagonistic activity to F. oxysporum, and the results provide evidence for the novel strain T. atroviride HN082102.1 in alleviating salt stress and diminishing cucumber root rot, indicating that T. atroviride strain HN082102.1 can be used as biological control agent in saline alkali land.
