Discussion

Observational analysis reduced disease incidence in tomato using biocontrol agents yeast and AM fungi, suggesting effective pathogen control.

The combined application of yeast and AM fungi reduced disease incidence from Fusarium wilt in tomato plants.
Treatment T5 achieved a remarkable disease reduction of 89%, alongside increased root colonization at 86.66%.
Yeast isolates like Rhodosporidium toruloides and Moesziomyces antarcticus demonstrated significant biocontrol efficacy against Fusarium oxysporum.
Enhanced plant growth metrics and yield parameters were observed, indicating a positive impact on tomato cultivation.

Gomathy et al. (2025) studied this question.
