Abstract: In this article, lectins of eight pathogen strains were extracted and purified. By testing agglutination lectins with 19 Trichoderma spp. srains, all lectins from fungi agglutinated the conidia of Trichoderma spp. with different titers, except lectin from Alternaria solani Ms. Result indicated that the agglutination of Trichoderma conidia by fungal lectins was related to their effectiveness caused by the corresponding pathogens. Statistical analysis showed significant correlation between titers of Fusarium lectin and the effectiveness of Trichoderma against the disease.The agglutination test might be applied to predict potential effectiveness of a given Trichoderma strain against the corresponding disease and the lectins could be employed in screening Trichoderma spp as biocontrol agents efficiently.
