- Observation Keerapatti village had 47.53% tomato collar rot incidence.
- Observation Sr10 was the most virulent isolate, causing 62.30% disease incidence in pot experiments.
- Method / resource Molecular characterization confirmed the pathogen as S. rolfsii.
- Method / resource Molecular characterization confirmed the antagonists as B. subtilis.
- Observation B. subtilis isolate Bs3 showed 78.94% in vitro antifungal inhibition.
- Intervention effect B. subtilis isolate Bs3 secondary metabolites suppressed pathogen mycelial growth by 77.41%.
- Intervention effect B. subtilis isolate Bs3 secondary metabolites suppressed pathogen sclerotial formation by 84.40%.
- Observation B. subtilis antifungal compounds showed strong binding affinity with pathogen target proteins in molecular docking.
- Intervention effect The integrated B. subtilis and neem cake treatment reduced tomato collar rot incidence by 78.29% in pot trials.
