A vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (VAMF), Glomus mosseae, was tested as a biological control agent of bacterial wilt caused by Pseudomonas solanacearum on three varieties of tomato and two varieties of eggplant. Field experiments were conducted in four different sites. A significant increase in survival rate and yield of tomato and eggplant due to mycorrhizal inoculation in an area naturally infested and artificially inoculated with P. solanacearum was observed. The results of the experiments implied that mycorrhizal inoculation not only increase growth and yield of plants but also showed potential in controlling/decreasing bacterial wilt incidence
