Abstract: Sixteen samples were collected from rhizospheric soil of tomato crop of eight (8) districts of marathwada region. From these soil samples 16 isolates were isolated on PDA medium. This rhizospheric soil was isolated by using 10^-4 to 10^-5 dilution by dilution plate technique. Out of 16, only 8 rhizospheric soil samples had the population of Trichoderma spp. The results of isolation of Trichoderma spp from rhizospheric soils of tomato were presented in table.1 (Plate I) by visual observation Trichoderma spp. were identified as Trichoderma viride isolates, T. harzianum isolates and T. hamatum isolates.It is also evident from (Table 1 plate I) that, T. hamatum and T. harzianum were present in most of the soil samples of Marathwada region. T. harzianum was mostly found in Jalna, Parbhani, Osmanabad and Aurangabad districts of Marathwada region. T. viride was observed in Beed and Hingoli and T. hamatum was observed in Latur and Nanded districts of Marathwada region.
