Trichoderma spp. are gaining popularity in agriculture and forestry due to their multifaceted roles in promoting plant growth through e.g. nutrient translocation, hormone production, induction of plant systemic resistance, but also direct antagonism of other fungi. However, the mycotrophic nature of the genus bears the risk of possible interference with other native plant-beneficial fungi, such as ectomycorrhiza, in the rhizosphere. Such interference could yield unpredictable consequences for the host plants of these ecosystems. So far, it remains unclear, whether Trichoderma is able to differentiate between plant-beneficial and plant-pathogenic fungi during the process of plant colonization.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>We investigated whether Trichoderma spp. can differentiate between beneficial ectomycorrhizal fungi (represented by Laccaria bicolor and Hebeloma cylindrosporum) and pathogenic fungi (represented by Fusarium graminearum and Alternaria alternata) in different confrontation scenarios, including a newly developed olfactometer \"race tube\"-like system. Using two independent species, T. harzianum and T. atrobrunneum, with plant-growth-promoting and immune-stimulating properties towards Populus x canescens, our study revealed robustly accelerated growth towards phytopathogens, while showing a contrary response to ectomycorrhizal fungi.

This paper presents a modification for the fungal monofilament spinning process, by the development of a benign method, dry gel spinning, to produce continuous monofilaments and twisted multifilament yarns, from fungal cell wall, that can be used in textile applications. The fungal biomass of Rhizopus delemar, grown using bread waste as a substrate, was subjected to alkali treatment with a dilute sodium hydroxide solution to isolate alkali-insoluble material (AIM), which mainly consists of the fungal cell wall. The treatment of AIM with dilute lactic acid resulted in hydrogel formation. The morphology of the hydrogels was pH dependent, and they exhibited shear thinning viscoelastic behavior. Dry gel spinning of the fungal hydrogels was first conducted using a simple lab-scale syringe pump to inject the hydrogels through a needle to form a monofilament, which was directly placed on a rotating receiver and left to dry at room temperature. The resulting monofilament was used to make twisted multifilament yarns. The process was then improved by incorporating a heated chamber for the quicker drying of the monofilaments (at 30⁰C). Finally, the spinning process was scaled up using a twin-screw microcompounder instead of the syringe pump. The monofilaments were several meters long and reached a tensile strength of 63 MPa with a % elongation at break of 14. When spinning was performed in the heated chamber, the tensile strength increased to 80 MPa and further increased to 103 MPa when a micro-compounder was used for spinning.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The developed dry gel spinning method shows promising results in scalability and demonstrates the potential for renewable material production using fungi.
