Project description:We perform a self hybridisation comprative genomic hybridization (CGH) in order to validate the probe tiling design we done on Trichoderma reesei. This hybridization was done using QM6a wild type strain.
Project description:Trichoderma harzianum T34 is a fungal strain able to promote the plant growth and to increase plant defense responses. Trichoderma harzianum transformants expressing the amdS gene, encoding an acetamidase, of Aspergillus nidulans produce a higher plant development than the wild type T34. We used microarrays to analyze the physiological and biochemical changes in tomato plants produced as consequence of interaction with Trichoderma harzianum T34 and amdS transformants

Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE19832: Trichoderma virens transcript levels during mycoparasitism GSE23382: Trichoderma atroviride transcript levels during mycoparasitism GSE23410: Trichoderma reesei transcript levels during mycoparasitism Refer to individual Series
Project description:Trichoderma reesei is the main industrial producer of cellulases and hemicellulases used to depolymerize biomass in many biotechnical applications. Many production strains in use have been generated by classical mutagenesis. In this study we characterized genomic alterations in hyperproducing mutants of T. reesei by high-resolution comparative genomic hybridisation tiling array. We carried out aCGH analysis of four hyperproducing strains (QM9123, QM9414, NG14 and RutC-30) using QM6a genome as a reference. ArrayCGH analysis identified dozens of mutations in each strain analyzed.
Project description:Trichoderma erinaceum secretome The use of lignocellulosic biomass is something that has been encouraged considering the search for sustainable alternatives mainly in the energy sector. However, to use such biomass as feedstock, its degradation is necessary aiming the formation of sugars that could be used in fermentation. For this conversion, enzymatic cocktails with degradative capacity are used, which are normally composed for the of filamentous fungi secretomes. The present work presents the characterization of Trichoderma erinaceum aiming at its use as a producer of lignocellulolytic enzymes. Cultivations were conducted using Mandels-Andreotti media enriched with four different carbon sources (glucose, avicel, pretreated sugarcane straw, or energy cane bagasse) in different time points (72h, 96h, 120h, 144h), and the supernatants were analyzed by mass spectrometry to determine the various patterns of enzyme secretion resulting from the modification of components within the media.
Project description:The ascomycete Trichoderma reesei is an industrial producer of cellulolytic and hemicellulolytic enzymes and also serves as a model for investigations on these enzymes and their genes. The strain QM9978 has a cellulase negative phenotype and therefore presents a valuable tool for understanding the mechanisms underlying cellulase regulation. A transcriptomic analyses of the cellulase negative strain QM9978 and the original strain QM6a have been performed to identify the genetic differences between QM6a and QM9978 leading to the cellulase-negative phenotype
