This research discovered and described seven new species of fungi in China that belong to the genus Trichoderma. These fungi are commonly found growing on wood and are important because many Trichoderma species have beneficial applications in agriculture and industry. The study helps us better understand fungal biodiversity in China and provides valuable information for potential future applications. Impacts on everyday life: • Helps identify beneficial fungi that could be used for biological control in agriculture • Contributes to the discovery of new species that might have industrial or medical applications • Improves our understanding of wood-decay fungi that affect timber products • Aids in the development of sustainable agricultural practices using beneficial fungi • Advances our knowledge of fungal biodiversity in Asia
