Micro Army TRH — encapsulated Trichoderma harzianum
Trichodermaharzianum
Microbial biopesticides are natural products made from microorganisms like bacteria, fungi, or viruses that control pests and diseases in crops. These biopesticides target specific pests while being safe for humans, animals, and beneficial insects. They offer an eco-friendly, sustainable solution to pest management in agriculture.
The science
Mode of action
How Trichoderma harzianum works inside the plant and the soil.
Mycoparasitic hyphal coiling
Trichoderma harzianum chemically recognizes pathogenic fungi, coils around their hyphae, penetrates cell walls, and consumes internal cellular components.
Hydrolytic enzyme secretion
Secretes chitinases, glucanases, and proteases that enzymatically degrade fungal cell walls, leading to membrane collapse and pathogen mortality.
Antifungal metabolite production
Produces secondary metabolites that inhibit fungal respiration, suppress spore germination, and restrict mycelial growth and pathogen colonization.
Rhizosphere competitive exclusion
Rapid colonization of the rhizosphere excludes pathogens by occupying infection sites and preventing pathogen attachment and establishment.
Induced systemic resistance activation
Activates jasmonic acid and ethylene-mediated plant defense pathways, strengthening resistance against subsequent fungal pathogen invasion.

Key benefits
5 reasons growers choose Trichoderma harzianum.
- 01
Broad-spectrum fungal suppression
Effectively suppresses Fusarium, Rhizoctonia, Sclerotium, and Pythium species through multiple antagonistic biological mechanisms.
- 02
Long-lasting root protection
Maintains stable rhizosphere populations that continuously inhibit pathogenic fungi, ensuring prolonged root zone protection.
- 03
Reduced disease severity
Limits pathogen multiplication, reducing infection pressure and significantly slowing disease development within crop systems.
- 04
Prevention of re-infection
Suppresses secondary inoculum formation, reducing repeated disease cycles throughout the crop growth period.
- 05
Eco-safe disease control
Provides effective fungal disease management without phytotoxicity, environmental contamination, or chemical residue accumulation.
