Abstract
A biological control agent comprising the antifungal agent Trichoderma harzianum T-35 (ATCC No. 20691), which is characterized by antifungal activity against fungi of the genus Fusarium. This strain is useful for protecting most crops affected by the fungus Fusarium spp. and is more active than other previously disclosed strains. Biocontrol compositions containing T. harzianum T-35 (ATCC No. 20691) provide antifungal protection to a broad spectrum of plants, including wheat, cotton, melons and tomatoes.
