Trichoderma asiaticum is a fungus that was described from soil samples in China. T. asiaticum was isolated from environmental samples and characterized using morphological features and molecular phylogenetic analyses. [1]
Etymology
[edit]The specific epithet comes from the Latin word asiaticum.[1]
Taxonomy
[edit]The type species was collected in July of 2007 by Zefen Yu and Yifan Lv in Luliang county, Yunnan province, China at an elevation of 1800 m (24°57'22.0"N 103°46'30.0"E). It was then sequenced and formally described in 2021 by Zefen Yu and Xing Du.[1] The type specimen (holotype YMF 1.00352) is stored at the Conservation and Utilization of Bio-Resources in Yunnan, in a metabolically inactive state (deep freezing). The ex-type culture is stored at the China General Microbiological Culture Collection Center (CGMCC 3.19085), and has a MycoBank# of 825470.1
T. asiaticum is closely related phylogenetically to T. guizhouense, T. pholiotae, T. pseudoasiaticum, and T. simile in the complex Harzianum Clade Complex.[2]
