Yu-Heng Tseng et al.
DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2020.573670
A strain-specific study of interactions between Trichoderma and its plant hosts. The findings illustrate why biological-protection evidence needs to remain attached to the organism and study conditions concerned.

These selected product records contain formulation information and crop-specific results, with direct access to the technical files. They are separate from the independent literature above. Read each result in the context of the product, comparison and study conditions stated.
Rhizosphere interactions and nodulation
Strain composition, crop-specific field comparisons, formulation specifications and seed-treatment compatibility.
Peanut and soybean records each state their own trial conditions. Peanut aflatoxin measurements, soil fungal abundance and nodulation are distinct endpoints; seed-treatment compatibility applies to the formulation and combinations evaluated.
Crop-matched rhizobial inoculation
Crop–rhizobium matching, formulation and dose information, nodulation observations and crop-specific field results.
The records distinguish the rhizobial inoculant from other products in a combined programme. Strain suitability and application requirements are specific to the crop and conditions described.
Root development and nutrient use
Microbial composition, formulation and application information, root observations and crop-specific comparisons.
Single-product results are presented separately from combined programmes. Vigor’s root-zone role is distinct from the nodule-forming function of crop-matched rhizobia.
