Patent EP-2455449-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KRUSZEWSKA JOANNA S
IPC: A01N63/38
Filed: 2011-05-20
Abstract: The invention applies to a new  Trichoderma atroviride  strain with improved biocontrol activity, for use in agriculture as a biofungicide. The method of obtaining the  Trichoderma atroviride  strain with elevated biocontrol activity, according to the invention, is performed by modification of the amount of secretory proteins and of their secretion achieved by expression of the  DPM1  gene from  S. cerevisiae  coding for DPM synthase, an enzyme synthesizing Dol-P-Mannose. Expression is obtained by transformation of the fungus with a vector carrying the  DPM1  gene. 
     The observed enhanced antifungal properties are a result of the  DPM1  gene overexpression leading to elevated cellulolytic activity of secretory proteins and their increased amount.
