Plant pathogenic fungi have a significant impact on agriculture and forestry. In this dissertation, Trichoderma isolates were characterized as a biological control agent against pathogens, particularly in combating the ergot fungus. Additionally, the compatibility of Trichoderma with hybrid poplars was confirmed, and a test system was established, which allowed the demonstration that Trichoderma strains can distinguish between fungal pathogens and ectomycorrhiza during the mycotrophic phase. These findings highlight the promising role of Trichoderma for sustainable agriculture through its adaptive interactions with other root-associated fungi.
