Jasmine is the most attractive flower crop being cultivated throughout the tropical and sub-tropical countries. In Tamil Nadu jasmine cultivation is highly interrupted by the soil borne wilt pathogen Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc. In the current scenario of disease management of soil borne pathogens Trichoderma spp can be effectively exploited for the effective containment of the disease. The isolate SR1 was found to be the most virulent during the surveillance programme and it produced the maximum amount of host non-specific toxin oxalic acid. The Trichoderma species such as T. harzianum (TspT), Trichoderma sp. (TspK) and T. viride 1 performed well and inhibited the mycelial growth effectively. The best isolate TspT excelled in toxin degradation. The ITS region of TspT was amplified with primers ITS1 and ITS4 and the product (650 bp) showed homology sequences (98%) with T. harzianum in the NCBI-Blast search.
