RT—retention time; T.aT. asperellum; T.hT. harzianum; T.vT. virens; T.lT. longibrachiatum; T.rT. atroviride; T.bT. brevicompactum. Values are percentages of the total fatty acids, from an average of three replicates. Different superscript letter indicates statistically significant (p ≤ 0.05) differences among different.
