So far, biocontrol agent selection has been performed mainly by time consuming in vitro confrontation tests followed extensive trials greenhouse and field. An alternative approach is offered application of high-throughput techniques, which allow screening comparison among strains for desired genetic traits. In the genus Trichoderma, past assignments particular features or to one species need be reconsidered according recent taxonomic revisions. Here we present genome a strain formerly known as Trichoderma harzianum ITEM 908, exhibits both growth promoting capabilities antagonism against different fungal pathogens, including Fusarium graminearum, Rhizoctonia solani, root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita. By genomic analysis 908 investigated occurrence relevance genes associated stress tolerance, providing basis future investigation aiming unravel complex relationships between endowment exhibited activities this strain. The MLST ITS-TEF1 concatenated datasets reclassified T. atrobrunneum, recently described within phylogenetically close afroharzianum guizhouense. Genomic revealed presence broad range encoding carbohydrate active enzymes (CAZYmes), proteins involved secondary metabolites production, peptaboils, epidithiodioxopiperazines siderophores potentially parasitism, saprophytic degradation well antagonistic activities.

Trichoderma reesei (Ascomycota, Pezizomycotina) QM6a is a model fungus for broad spectrum of physiological phenomena, including plant cell wall degradation, industrial production enzymes, light responses, conidiation, sexual development, polyketide biosynthesis, and plant-fungal interactions. The genomes its high enzyme-producing mutants have been sequenced by second-generation-sequencing methods are publicly available from the Joint Genome Institute. While these genome sequences offered useful information genomic transcriptomic studies, their limitations especially short read lengths make them poorly suited some particular biological problems, assembly, genome-wide determination chromosome architecture, genetic modification or engineering.We integrated Pacific Biosciences Illumina sequencing platforms highest-quality assembly yet achieved, revealing seven telomere-to-telomere chromosomes (34,922,528 bp; 10877 genes) with 1630 newly predicted genes >1.5 Mb new sequences. Most located on AT-rich blocks, 7 centromeres, 14 subtelomeres, 2329 interspersed blocks. centromeres separately consist 24 conserved repeats 37 putative centromere-encoded genes. These findings open up perspective future centromere architecture studies. Next, we demonstrate that crossing readily induced cytosine-to-thymine point mutations both tandem unlinked duplicated We also show bioinformatic analysis T. has evolved robust repeat-induced mutation (RIP) system to accumulate sequences, longer blocks having more RIP mutations. widespread distribution correlates partitions gene clusters, explaining why clustering reported not influence expression in reesei.Compartmentation ancestral clusters might promote flexibilities evolutionarily advantageous this fungus' soil habitats other natural environments. Our analyses, together complete sequence, provide better blueprint biotechnological applications.

Second generation (2G) ethanol is produced by breaking down lignocellulosic biomass into fermentable sugars. In Brazil, sugarcane bagasse has been proposed as the residue for this biofuel production. The enzymatic cocktails degradation of biomass-derived polysaccharides are mostly fungi, such Aspergillus niger and Trichoderma reesei. However, it not yet fully understood how these microorganisms degrade plant biomass. order to identify transcriptomic changes during steam-exploded (SEB) breakdown, we conducted a RNA-seq comparative transcriptome profiling both fungi growing on SEB carbon source. Particular attention was focused CAZymes, sugar transporters, transcription factors (TFs) other proteins related lignocellulose degradation. Although genes coding main enzymes involved in deconstruction were expressed fungal strains since beginning growth SEB, significant differences found their expression profiles. mainly regulated at level, A. T. reesei also showed TFs content expression. Several transporters that induced could be new players besides role uptake. Interestingly, our findings revealed several code unknown function pro-oxidant, antioxidant, detoxification source, but specific roles remain elucidated.
