Abstrakt: Intact conidia of three industrially relevant strains of Trichoderma reeseiwere effectively transformed by particle bombardment. Transformations were carried out individually with plasmids carrying either the fungal amdSor bacterial hphgene as a selectable marker and by cotransformation with both plasmids. Transformant yields with single plasmids were up to 11 stable transformants per µg DNA at the bombardment distance of 6 cm. Mitotic stability of the transformants was 75–100% and the cotransformation efficiency averaged 92% when the first selection was performed on hygromycin B plates. The entire procedure could be completed in 1 week with the hphmarker.
