| Abstract | ||
| The study was conducted to study the effects of different alternative, non-chemical strategies and its combinations on soil-disease control and fruit yield of tomato. Also, quantify the level of resistance of different tomato cultivars against root and vascular diseases. The results indicated ability of four tomato cultivars to infect with Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium solani, Rhizoctonia solani and Macrophomina phaseolina as fungal pathogens. When tomato plants were treated with Trichoderma and cumin essential oil for overcome infection by Fusarium oxysporum, the results indicated that there were no significant differences in most studied characters except fruit total yield per plant when plants infected by Fusarium oxysporum. Also, the results showed that significant only in total yield per plant when tomato plant exposed to infect by Fusarium solani. The obtained results indicated the ability of Trichoderma and cumin essential oil to overcome the bad effect of fungal pathogens. | ||
