Phytophthora cinnamomi is a phytopathogen reported as the causative agent of avocado root rot in Peru. In this study, the antagonistic capacity of Trichoderma spp native strains isolated from the avocado crop rhizosphere in Quilmaná, Cañete, was evaluated. For the in vitro evaluation of the antagonistic capacity of the isolated strains, the dual culture technique was used, where the percentages of radial growth inhibition (PICR) of P. cinnamomi were measured. Of the total isolates, 3 strains (P1.1, P4.9 and P5.3) presented higher PICR with 53.86, 56.24 and 60.49% respectively. Molecular identification indicated that strains P4.9 and P1.1 show 99.66 and 100% similarity to Trichoderma asperellum, while strain P5.3, 98.17% similarity to Trichoderma spp, according to BLAST analysis. Based on the results obtained, these Trichoderma asperellum strains represent a potential to be used as biocontrol agents of P. cinnamomi. therefore, it is recommended to carry out a field trial.
