Abstract
Solanaceae crops are susceptible to various fungal pathogens, leading to significant yield losses. BCAs such as Trichoderma spp., Bacillus spp., Pseudomonas fluorescens, Beauveria bassiana, and Gliocladium spp. effectively manage fungal diseases in Solanaceae crops. Molecular mechanisms of BCAs involve activation of plant defense pathways and production of antifungal compounds. Integrating BCAs with other disease management strategies enhances their efficacy and reduces reliance on chemical fungicides. Emerging trends in BCA research focus on microbial consortia, endophytic bacteria, and modern biotechnological tools.
