The Hypocreales are an order of fungi within the class Sordariomycetes. In 2008, it was estimated that it contained some 237 genera, and 2647 species in seven families. Since then, a considerable number of further taxa have been identified, including an additional family, the Stachybotryaceae.
Fungal nematode antagonists
Compositions and methods for controlling plant-parasitic nematodes using naturally derived fungal strains are provided. The compositions comprise one or more fungi selected from Trichoderma koningiopsis NC.184, Metarhizium NC.244, Clonostachys NC.261, Clonostachys NC.359, Clonostachys NC.297, an unidentified Hypocreales fungus NC.311, Pseudozyma pruni NC.423, Clonostachys rosea NC.480, Metarhizium anisopliae NC.374, Plectosphaerella cucumerina NC.438, or products, isolates, or extracts derived therefrom, optionally in combination with surfactants or additional active ingredients. Formulations include sprays, powders, granules, seed coatings, emulsions, and microencapsulated products. Methods of producing fungal materials and methods of applying the compositions to plants, seeds, or soil to reduce nematode populations are also provided. The compositions are effective against agriculturally important nematodes, including soybean cyst, root-knot, lesion, sting, and corn needle nematodes, and may improve plant health and yield. The invention enables biologically based nematode management for crops such as soybean and corn.
