Abstract

The phenomena of the guttation and autolysis have been reported in various wild mushroom species in natural conditions. These have also been reported in various fungi including Trichoderma species from different sources during their artificial culturing. In the present article, these phenomena have been reported and discussed in the case of seed borne Trichoderma species isolated from the seeds of Dipterocarpus retusus and propagated under artificial culture conditions. The process of guttation and the autolysis are reported to have ecological significance to the respective organism in the ecosystem.
