Fungi from the genus Cladorrhinum (Ascomycota) are promising agents in the biocontrol of phytopathogens, in the promotion of plant growth, and in the production of enzymes with technological application. We analyzed comparatively the ability of 5 native strains of Cladorrhinum samala and Cladorrhinum bulbillosum with reference strains belonging to the same genus. We used 95 individual carbon sources available in microplates from the Biolog® FF system. Although most of the strains mainly used soluble carbohydrates, the metabolic profile was highly dependent upon each isolate and it revealed intraspecific physiological variability in Cladorrhinum species.

锁草属（Ascomycota）属的真菌在植物病原体的生物防治，促进植物生长以及通过技术应用生产酶方面是很有前途的药物。我们比较分析了5个天然的samala和Cladorrhinum bulbillosum本地菌株与属于同一属的参考菌株的能力。我们从Biolog®FF系统的微孔板中使用了95种单独的碳源。尽管大多数菌株主要使用可溶性碳水化合物，但其代谢特征高度依赖于每种分离物，并且揭示了锁草属物种的种内生理变异性。
