Early blight suppression and plant growth promotion potential of the endophyte Aspergillus flavus in tomato plant

In the current work, A. flavus as an herb endophyte was selected to verify its role as plant growth-promoting and protection such as antimicrobial activity, IAA production, phosphorus solubilization and nutritional improvement of the tomato plant. So far, there is no previous investigation has been done on evaluating the potential of A. flavus as tomato plant growth promotion and to control Alternaria early blight disease of tomato.
