Sensibility of Trichoderma spp. isolates to benomyl and iprodione

The objective of this work was to evaluate the sensibility of wild isolates of Trichoderma spp.; T. viride (Tal1); T. viride (T2b); T. harzianum (Tal8); T. viride (Tligjap); T. harzianum (TW5) e T. harzianum (TMA4); at concentrations of 0; 0.25; 0.5; 1.0; and 2.5µg/ml of active ingredient of benomyl and at concentrations of 0; 2.5; 5.0; 10.0 e 100.0µg/ml of iprodione, in vitro. Fungitoxicity was evaluated by measuring sporulation, in Neubauer chamber, after seven days of incubation and calculation of colony growth rate. In general, benomyl and iprodione impaired micelial growth and sporulation. The isolate TW5 showed to be less affected by the fungicides. The mycelial growth was reduced at benomyl and at iprodione, and it also produced more spores in the presence of fungicides than the others isolates.
