Downy mildew is the most important disease that affects quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) in the Peruvian altiplano, it’s caused by pseudo fungi Peronospora variabilis Gäum. It causes yield reductions up to 99%. With the purpose of evaluating the effect of Trichoderma sp strains with endophytic capacity in the control of the mildew and improve quinoa yield var. Salcedo INIA, the seeds were fully covered (1x106 ufc. seed-1) and substrate was infested with spores of 10 Trichoderma strains to determine the percentage of endophytic colonization in quinoa plants at 30 and 60 days age under controlled conditions;four leaf applications (1x107 ufc.ml-1) and severity evaluations were also performed to determine the area under the disease progress curve (AUDPC) and grain yield under field conditions. All the strains managed to colonize different parts of the ...
