The potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is a globally cultivated staple food crop of great importance, both as a food plant and as an industrial and fodder plant. Significant annual losses in potato production are reported due to soilborne phytopathogens. Therefore, effective control or management of plant diseases is an essential component of sustainable agricultural practices. Alternaria species synthesize dangerous toxins, which can accumulate in infected agricultural crops and persist in processed products. Fungi belonging to the genus Trichoderma have been widely used as effective biological control agents against fungal phytopathogens. The present study represents a continuation of this research, focusing on the prevention and control of Alternaria diseases in potato cultivation.
