[PMID: 37686983 PMCID: PMC10490099 DOI: 10.3390/nano13172475] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2023] [Revised: 08/26/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023]
Abstract
The environmental impact of industrial development has been well-documented. The use of physical and chemical methods in industrial development has negative consequences for the environment, raising concerns about the sustainability of this approach. There is a growing need for advanced technologies that are compatible with preserving the environment. The use of fungi products for nanoparticle (NP) synthesis is a promising approach that has the potential to meet this need. The genus Trichoderma is a non-pathogenic filamentous fungus with a high degree of genetic diversity. Different strains of this genus have a variety of important environmental, agricultural, and industrial applications. Species of Trichoderma can be used to synthesize metallic NPs using a biological method that is environmentally friendly, low cost, energy saving, and non-toxic. In this review, we provide an overview of the role of Trichoderma metabolism in the synthesis of metallic NPs. We discuss the different metabolic pathways involved in NP synthesis, as well as the role of metabolic metabolites in stabilizing NPs and promoting their synergistic effects. In addition, the future perspective of NPs synthesized by extracts of Trichoderma is discussed, as well as their potential applications in biomedicine, agriculture, and environmental health.

Ye W, Liu T, Liu Y, Li M, Wang S, Li S, Zhang W. Enhancing gliotoxins production in deep-sea derived fungus Dichotomocyes cejpii by engineering the biosynthetic pathway. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2023; 377:128905. [PMID: 36931443 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2023.128905] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2023] [Revised: 03/09/2023] [Accepted: 03/12/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Gliotoxin can be developed as potent biopesticide. In this study, the positive transcriptional factor gliZ, glutathione-S transferase encoding gene gliG and gliN were firstly deleted by CRISPR/Cas9 system, which abolished the production of gliotoxin-like compounds in Dichotomomyces cejpii. CRISPR/dCas9 system targeting promoter of gliG was used to activate the biosynthetic genes in gli cluster. The overexpression of gliZ, gliN and gliG can significantly improve the yield of gliotoxin-like compunds. The gliotoxin yields was improved by 16.38 ± 1.36 fold, 18.98 ± 1.28 fold through gliZ overexpression and gliM deletion in D. cejpii FS110. In addtion, gliN was heterologously expressed in E. coli, the purified GliN can catalyze gliotoxin into methyl-gliotoxin. Furthermore, the binding sequences of GliZ in the promoters of gliG was determined by Dnase footprinting. This study firstly illustrated the transcriptional regulatory mechanism of DcGliZ for the gliotoxin biosynthesis in D. cejpii, and improved the yields of gliotoxins significantly in D. cejpii via biosynthetic approaches.

Trichoderma Species: Our Best Fungal Allies in the Biocontrol of Plant Diseases-A Review. PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 12:plants12030432. [PMID: 36771517 PMCID: PMC9921048 DOI: 10.3390/plants12030432] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2022] [Revised: 01/08/2023] [Accepted: 01/13/2023] [Indexed: 06/02/2023]
Abstract
Biocontrol agents (BCA) have been an important tool in agriculture to prevent crop losses due to plant pathogens infections and to increase plant food production globally, diminishing the necessity for chemical pesticides and fertilizers and offering a more sustainable and environmentally friendly option. Fungi from the genus Trichoderma are among the most used and studied microorganisms as BCA due to the variety of biocontrol traits, such as parasitism, antibiosis, secondary metabolites (SM) production, and plant defense system induction. Several Trichoderma species are well-known mycoparasites. However, some of those species can antagonize other organisms such as nematodes and plant pests, making this fungus a very versatile BCA. Trichoderma has been used in agriculture as part of innovative bioformulations, either just Trichoderma species or in combination with other plant-beneficial microbes, such as plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB). Here, we review the most recent literature regarding the biocontrol studies about six of the most used Trichoderma species, T. atroviride, T. harzianum, T. asperellum, T. virens, T. longibrachiatum, and T. viride, highlighting their biocontrol traits and the use of these fungal genera in Trichoderma-based formulations to control or prevent plant diseases, and their importance as a substitute for chemical pesticides and fertilizers.
