The vine is a crop affected by various pests and diseases. Being the oidium produced by Erysiphe necator one of the
most important. Generally the farmer, due to lack of knowledge makes an inappropriate use of fungicides, which is
harmful, since the intensive use (and sometimes excessive) of chemical products has had negative effects on the
environment and the quality of life of human populations. That is why the present investigation set out to develop a
clean technology with the use of antagonistic fungi Trichoderma viride for the control of E. necator in the Italian vine
variety in field conditions. Two treatments were performed in parallel. The first consisted of the exclusive use of T.
viride, and the second of the exclusive use of chemical products. Sanitary applications were given once a week, from
the phenological stage of inflo.. View more»
