Abstract: A fungal strain of the genus Trichoderma with the designation HSA12 and compositions that contain said fungal strain or spores thereof is disclosed. The fungal strain or spores thereof are promoting stabilizing plant growth, increasing the yields of crops, inoculating soil, roots and/or above-ground plant parts with the fungal strain or spores with compositions containing said fungal strain or spores thereof, to increase the efficiency of nutrient intake and to improve the stress tolerance of crops as well as improving the structure and health of the soil or for decontaminating or remediating soil or a body of water and for stabilizing or reestablishing endangered or desired wild plant populations. Also disclosed is a set of primer pairs for amplifying microsatellite loci of the genome of the fungal strain in order to determine molecular markers and to identify the fungal strain. A method for determining the fungal strain is also disclosed.
