Novel approach in whole genome mining and transcriptome analysis reveal conserved RiPPs in Trichoderma spp.

We demonstrate that the unusual mining approach using tools developed for bacteria can be used in fungi, when carefully curated. Our study is the first report of the potential of Trichoderma to produce RiPPs, the detected clusters encode novel uncharacterized RiPPs. The method described in our study will lead to further mining efforts in all subdivisions of the fungal kingdom.
