An investigation entitled “Evaluation of different oils on shelf life study of Trichoderma viride” was carried out during 2017-2018 in the department of Plant Pathology, College of Agriculture, Nagpur. Different oils viz., Paraffin oil, soybean oil, mineral oil, Potato Dextrose broth and talc was extensively used as carrier for Trichoderma viride. As compared to solid based carrier material the survival of Trichoderma viride in liquid based formulations is quite high and has the ability to limit the heat transfer high water holding capacity and maintain water around the cells for their metabolism. Shelf life studies clearly indicated significant differences at all the intervals. | Shelf life study and antagonistic activity of Trichoderma viride in different oil formulations
