Rhythmic conidiation in the blue-light fungus Trichoderma pleuroticola

Trichoderma species conidiate in response to blue light, however, unlike in the blue-light model fungus Neurospora crassa, conidiation in Trichoderma spp. has been considered to be non-circadian. In this study we uncovered evidence for circadian conidiation in Trichoderma pleuroticola and identified orthologues of the key N. crassa clock components, wc-1 (blr-1) and frq.
