Abstrakt: Formulation of biocontrol agents including bioinoculants and biopesticides is a critical factor which determines crop growth and yield that are cultivated by organic agriculture practices. Trichoderma viride is the most commonly used biocontrol agent against diverse plant pathogens associated with various crops. In the present study, the effect of formulation like gel matrix prepared from natural products and water in oil emulsion of Trichoderma viride on the post treatment persistence adapting dilution method and soil dilution method was studied. The maximum frequency of occurrence was recorded in all the formulation over the control, and high frequency of occurrence was recorded in water in oil formulation and followed by biogel formulation. The effect of metallic nanoparticles on the formulation efficacy was also studied which reveals all the formulation could retain the viability. The effect of formulation on the biocontrol efficacy of Fusarium oxysporum and Alternaria alternata adapting soil dilution method reveals all the formulation retarded the tested pathogenic fungal colonies, and the biogel formulation of Trichoderma viride with nanoparticles treatment showed the best compatibility on decomposition of organic wastes. The study is highly recommended because of the high rate of persistence of compatibility resistant to nanoparticle treatment and best biocontrol efficacy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
