Trichoderma is a cosmopolitan fungus that prevalent in the soil and other diverse habitats. It has gained vast economical importance's because industrial enzymes production, antifungal, antibiotics, biocontrol agents and plant growth promoter. Trichoderma species produced the lignocellulolytic enzymes activities that assisted in the degradation of woody lignocellulose materials for industrial applications. Therefore, an accurately identification of Trichoderma isolates at the species level is highly desirable. In this study, the main aim to accurately identify of Trichoderma isolates at the species level based on the morphological characteristics, lignocellulolytic enzyme activities and multilocus gene sequencing based on the Internal Transcribed Spacers 1 and 2 (ITS1 and ITS2) regions of the rDNA, a partial sequence of the Translation Elongation Factor 1-alpha ( tefl) and calmodulin (ea/).
