- Association Water restriction was associated with increased leaf concentrations of zinc and nitrogen in papaya.
- Observation Papaya treated with T. harzianum under 75% ETc attained a yield of 93.29 kg per plant.
- Observation The untreated control at 50% ETc recorded a leaf nitrogen concentration of 19.14 g per kg.
- Intervention effect Under 50% ETc, B. aryabhattai increased the soil bacterial population to 10.46 log10 CFU per g soil compared with the control.
- Intervention effect The T. harzianum-based biostimulant reduced leaf sodium in papaya under 75% ETc.
- Observation The leaf nutrient accumulation order in papaya was K > N > Ca > Fe > Mn > Zn > Cu > Na, maintained under the T. harzianum biostimulant.
- Intervention effect B. aryabhattai improved papaya yield under 100% ETc through N accumulation.
- Intervention effect A. nodosum improved papaya yield under 100% ETc through N accumulation.
- Mechanism The authors conclude that microbial and seaweed-based biostimulants mitigate water stress through rhizosphere modification and nutritional homeostasis.
