Abstract:

The aim is to obtain the high-efficiency salt tolerant Trichoderma strains. The strain of Trichoderma longibrachiatum T6 was used as the original strain. Microwave mutagenesis and NaCl solution were used to simulate the salt stress condition. The colony growth rates, sporulation and mycelium dry weight were considered as indexes to screen the optimal salt tolerant strains. The results showed that the microwave mutation had a significant effect on the growth of Trichoderma longibrachiatum T6, and the effect was different with the different time of microwave mutation. The colony diameter, mycelium dry weight and sporulation of the mutant strain were significantly higher than those of the original strain at 60 s after microwave mutation. In addition, the colony growth rate of the mutant strain was significantly faster than other treatments, and showed stronger salt tolerance than the original strain. The colony growth rate was increased by 32.98% after 72 h of culture compared with the original strain. The high-yield and high-efficiency Trichoderma strains with salt tolerance were selected and obtained in this experiment, which laid a theoretical foundation for the development and application of multifunctional Trichoderma preparation in the future.
